Anyone know of a means to convert BMP files to JPEG files? I have tried the
obvious (displaying the bmp image and "saving as" JPG) and it doesn't seem
to work with my image software. Advice please. TIA.

Maybe it's more clear for us to tell wich software you've tried.

Irfanview Can do the job, even in a batch.

My favorite (because it's easy) is FastStone Image Viewer

Seconded.

That being said, there's a handful of excellent freeware programs who can do
the job and do it well. FastStone, IrfanView and XNview are all capable and
100% free image viewers that can easily convert from one format to another.
They all also support batch processing, which is very useful if you have a
lot of images to convert. I recently used FastStone to convert about 500
images to a smaller size _and_ also make quadric miniature thumbnails for an
online picture gallery.

I'm fond of Pic2Pic. No frills, no bloat, easy to use.

One should be already on your Windows box ... MS Paint. I have used it
in a pinch (during a reinstall, for example)
