Some of its main features are:&#13;
&#13;
1. Allow client to select a folder which will contain lots of images in multiple formats&#13;
2. From this folder only load those images which are in JPEG format as thumbnail in the window&#13;
3. The images will be quite big. In some cases the size will be as big as 30MB per image file&#13;
4. Allow user to select multiple images for this we have to give a check box for each image shown and the user should be able to select an image by check marking it&#13;
5. Allow to user to generate PDF file of thumbnails of selected images&#13;
6. User will enter the required data for generating the PDF file like for example Page Size, number of columns, to show file name or not, etc.&#13;
7. Based on this we have to calculate the largest possible size of image thumbnail and generate PDF file with multiple pages depending on the number of images selected&#13;
8. After the PDF is generated we have to copy the selected images to a pre designated folder&#13;
9. Upload the selected images to a FTP&#13;
&#13;
Of course there other features but they are mundane and easy to implement.&#13;
&#13;
So before I start on this project I would like to know if it is possible to perform such things in WD or should I choose some other Dev tool.&#13;
&#13;
At present my choice goes with Delphi as far as this project is concerned, but I personally would like to give WD a spin for such a resource intensive project that has to deal with heavy duty files.&#13;
&#13;
All WX experts please do pour your inputs.&#13;
&#13;
TIA&#13;
&#13;

You both are right.&#13;
&#13;
List control does not support UNICODE for image file.&#13;
