That's a nice tip Volkhart - thanks. I just did a batch and did it again -
twice! I suppose that's why Vuescan's default TIF name is crop.001 or
something like that! I'll have to keep a piece of paper and pencil next to
the computer to jot down the codes and what each represents - that's
soooooo hi-tech!

(but does it HAVE to be c:\ something - I'm a Mac user. We're allergic to
backslashes!)
