I'm not sure how to ask what I want .. but here goes...

I have several image files on my machine (JPG). Some of them were originally saved portrait and others landscape. With Windows XP, I right-clicked and rotated the landscape pictures so they are now portrait. When I view the images in Windows, Word, VFP, and several apps, the image is portrait (like I want). However, in one particular application these images show up landscape.

I'm guessing this means that some type of rotation factor is saved in the file and all other applications honor this .. but this trouble-some app does not. What I'm wondering is, first of all, am I correct in assuming that some type of rotation is saved in the file. Secondly, how do I .. using VFP ... look at the file on my machine and figure out what the saved rotation factor is so I can use that to fudge the printing in this one trouble-some app.

Thanks in advance,
Cathy
