When I pull a file up in Explorer (WINDOWS Explorer, not INTERNET Explorer :awinky: ), I click on "File" (far left, Lee) and there's a "Properties" option.

:)

If this doesn't work, find a 12-14 year old - they know about these computer things than we do. :P

Can you save it as another name?
If so do that, then delete the original and rename the adjusted image with the original files name.

#1.... The adobe trials I have seen do not allow you to save your edits etc... Everything works except the save....

But then again, I have not seen everything there is to see yet... and I have not looked at a tril for 7.0

#2... Don't know what version of windows you are on, so don't know if this is true for everything.... But in windows explorer... With the file closed in adobe... Navigate to to the file.... Left click (single click to highlight the file name), then right click... from the pop menu pick properties... Should show a screen with the various file attributes.... Turn OFF read only if it is checked... Click ok.....

Hope thst helps....

I could not find any limitations listed on adobe's main site...

But... I found this on their UK site... at: http://www.adobe.co.uk/products/tryadobe/m....html#photoshop (http://www.adobe.co.uk/products/tryadobe/main.html#photoshop)

Limitations of Adobe Photoshop Tryout:
* This Tryout is for demonstration purposes only and does not include person-to-person technical support.
* The Photoshop 7.0 Tryout includes full online documentation. To access it, start Photoshop 7.0 Tryout, then choose Help & Contents.
* The Photoshop 7.0 version does not enable you to save, export or print artwork.

Hope this helps.....
