Thanks Gary, Actually, I wouldn't mind the 14MB download if that (caption -> keyword) could be implemented. It would dramatically change 'searching' for a keyword, if the program would look up a thesaurus for similiar keywords... sort of like searching by context... :) Probably the way to do it, would be to link the words automatically and allow the user to unlink specific words (that the software may have got wrong)... Good luck with your software. looking forward to seeing your next version.
