Actually - No !!

The sample macro for the calculator doesn't work as follows.

The specified control, C1, could not be found.

The macro will be aborted.

Thanks Guys,

Just shows how much I use a calculator - I've never noticed the view button on the calculator & didn't realise it had a scientific mode with a tan function.

Ah well - back to the macro code.

I need to rotate slightly some images - there is a built in function of IrfanView which lets me type in a positive or negative angle to rotate an image.

I can use getmouseposition to work out adjacent and opposite sides of a right angle triangle but then need Tan function to calculate the angle.

I see randallc has made up some wonderful macros for this type of stuff but am totally at a loss as to how to incorporate them into my simple task.

heeelllppp !!
