Re: RTVDDSSRC

FYI...  The RTVFDDS utility I wrote, and gave you the link to, only works on 
files not display files. I just tried it again myself for the first time in 
several years.  But it does very well at retrieving the DDS from a physical 
file object.

Digging this pgm out really takes me back. It was the very first thing I ever 
had published, and I had used one of Robin Klima's ideas as the basis for it.  
I can't believe that was almost  9 years ago.  Where does time go?
