5/16/01 9:55pm EDT Kay, >If you want a good AND FREE graphic program, try IrfanView I have that program but could find no way with it to set the "show" rate. Did find a place there to separate it into its individual frames, which is awkward but does let one view each map separately. Bill, Thanks for the suggestion to search Tucows. Found 4 animation editors ranging in price from $25 -$495. will just stick with IrfanView. Larry Shahan Kodak, TN
