Michael: What you say is far too logical and sensible. Every TIFF file I have ever seen which contains a timestamp uses local time without qualification so you have to guess at the time zone. It is a bit of a problem because I deal with images from two different time zones (US Eastern and Central) with time-dependent processing. -- Jon Saxton <js@triton.vg> OS/2 software developer U.S. agent for Triton Technologies International Ltd http://www.triton.vg/
