Almost all of the limitations in the Express Editions are with respect to the IDE features and other tools. But the .NET Framework libraries, such as System.Drawing, are available in the Express Editions. Paul ~~~~ Microsoft MVP (Visual Basic)

Hey, who'm I to argue? If you're okay with being seen as a disgrace, it'd really be pointless anyway... -- ..NET: It's About Trust! http://vfred.mvps.org

Hello Karl. I downloaded and tried to use FreeImage. There is a VB test project there but when i try to execute it from the VB 6 IDE, i gives the error "Compile Error: Expected list separator or)" on this line: Public Declare Function FreeImage_ToneMapping Lib "FreeImage.dll" Alias "_FreeImage_ToneMapping(a)20" (ByVal dib As Long, UNKNOWN tmo As FREE_IMAGE_TMO, Optional ByVal first_param As Double = 0, Optional ByVal second_param As Double = 0) As Long I have no idea of how to use the DLL with this software. I can't add it as a reference to the VB test project. Any help you can provide would be gratefully appreciated. Thanks, Tony "Karl E.
