Help,
 I have access to a number of .SCN files which I would like to use as a backdrop
in Windows.  I know that I can use a .BMP file by selecting it in the wallpaper
selection box but how do I use a .SCN format?  Do I need to convert from .SCN to
.BMP and if so how??
Alternatively, does anyone know of any sites that will e-mail me some .BMP files
to use.  Our site restrictions mean that I cannot ftp or telnet to remote sites
but can e-mail requests for indices (indexs/index's/indexes?) etc.
Thanx in advance
                Mark
