I can't reproduce your results above but I can't see what I am doing differently. I've tried putting rebooting my ArmX6. Initially the Sunfish module is not running and if I click on the image file then RISC OS hangs. If, I have !SunFish in AddToApps and load the Sunfish module and click on the image file then RISC OS hangs. If I have !SunFish in LookAt then the results are the same. The only way I can avoid RISC OS hanging is if I load the !Sunfish front end with the mount for the image file saved either via !Boot or manually. Then if I click on the image file it opens as expected. All very odd! -- ------------------------------------------------------------- Rob Hemmings Southport rhemmings@rgvk.co.uk
