Hi Guys,

THAT WORKS!!!

Thank you very much for all the help.

I set:
DEVICE, set_pixel_depth=24
TVRD(true=1)

David Fanning explaination of TVRD issues was also very helpful. I
also tried his TVREAD(), but it had the same issue as TVRD()....until
I set the pixel depth in the device. This might be due to the fact
that I am using the Z-buffer.

Thanks again for all the help,
Mark
