but once again, version after version after version, all the page turn transitions are backwards

Barry, Barry - re-arrange the words a horse, flog and dead. In this case very, very, very, very, very dead.

I do hope you live long enough to see your wish come true, your hopes fulfilled, your aims met, your siren song listened to, but do you really want to be 202 and a burden on your relatives? OK a bigger burden.

".......there ariseth in his soul many fears, and doubts, and discouraging apprehensions, which all of them get together, and settle in this place; and this is the reason of the badness of this ground"
The Slough of Despond, The Pilgrim's Progress - John Bunyan 1678.

May I suggest a new strapline for you "Ever waiting".

Sorry guys I appear to ave opened a wasp's nest here.

Find it very difficult to understand why a simple "Page Roll" efect should cause such a problem.
For many years I used Windows Movie Maker...lovely effects and many of them including a choice of Page Rolls. As WMM is now considered to be a "very old programme..why is it that a real Upmarket prog like Power Director cannot supply simple effects.
Is it too difficult? I mean, why can't we "turn a page" in movie as we do in everyday reading. How many people read "left handed books.
