Thanks for trying but you may not have realised that Colin Randall
included CWSDPMI.EXE in his last posting of his ASC-TOOL.EXE program
so I now have a copy.

With that program present ASC-TOOL.EXE ran OK and I have now got it
working well...especially LR.BAT which does a left to right reversal
of a picture and is the most useful of all the options...I often want
a plane, train, horse or whatever pointing in the opposite direction 
and hand reversals are very tedious.

I have diddled the command line of LR.BAT so that it produces an out file
with the reversal in it:

C> LR myfile   will produce the output file myfile.out!  :-)

BTW it was Stile who created RESIZE.EXE wasn't it?  Your proggie was
ASC2PIC.EXE and Colin Randall has come up with ASC-TOOL.EXE...we've
got some talented people around these days.

Bye,
