My pleasure. You don't want to load 1000 image files into LyX when a majority of them will never be displayed on screen since it is highly unlikely that a particular editing session will rediplay the entire document. Load them when you need them, not before. -- David Kastrup, Kriemhildstr. 15, 44793 Bochum Email: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
