ImagePro>Changing Image Description

["Schanbacher, Brandon" <SchanbaB[at]pediatrics.ohio-state.edu>]

I've got a macro to background subtract the entire contents of a folder, but
I would like the macro to write something into the image's Description to
reflect the fact that the images have been background subtracted.  This will
help users avoid inadvertently background subtracting the same images twice.

I can get it to simply write the words "Background Subtracted" into the
description using the IpWsChangeDescription command, but it will write over
any previous description.  Does anyone know how to get the current
description into a string onto which I could append the words "Background
Subtracted"?

I'm using IPP 4.5.1.22 on Win 2000

Thanks,
