Are these two packages not as good as >Rob Peck TV SHOW is great for banging out titles and slideshows in a hurry. However, it has no support for playing compressed ANIM files, which limits the speed and complexity of your presentations. I can't remember if the player that comes with it can be freely distributed or not. I do know that I tried to use it once, it didn't work properly, and I didn't have time to figure out why. I usually just load up the edit program and use that. I'll go back and take a look at it tonight, when I can go home and use my "real computer". Incidentaly, thanks for the book. My work on my manual is coming along somewhat slowly, but it's getting there. Hopefully, it'll be done before Christmas :-). --hal -- ------------------ "I am living in a condo hgm@ncsuvx.ncsu.edu with Henry Thoreau" netoprhm@ncsuvm.ncsu.bitnet Reagan Years, Part II
