   Saving and reading JPG in PDOX 11

   Hi   
      
   As Bertil has pointed out, Paradox 11 saves JPG files a bit strange. There   
   is supposed to be some options to alter the compression rate or file size. I   
   have tried this out myself, and as Bertil concluded, the JPG file does not   
   change with the options. In fact, the compression is so heavy that the   
   images are too much degraded. I have used outside Paradox s/w to manually   
   convert Paradox - table images (bmp) to JPG's.   
      
   Now, the question here is: Is there an addon to Paradox I can use to   
   programmatically read images from Paradox tables and save them as JPG's in a   
   way that I can decide the compression rate to keep the image quality?
