Obtain the actual size of the JPG file

Obtain the actual size of the JPG file bask

Compile it into a component and use it. PNG is also supported.

'I have released this source code into the public domain. You may use it
'With no strings attached.
'Just call getimagesize with a string containing the filename, and
'It will return a user defined type 'imagesize' (see below)
'Return values of 0 indicate an error of some sort. The error handling
'In this module is limited. There is * No * error handling on the test
'Form. This routine is limited to X or Y sizes of 32767 pixels, but that
'Could not be a problem.

'Check back at http://www.qtm.net /~ Davidc
'I may add support for more file types.

'Supported in this version:
'Jpeg
'Gif
'Png

'This routine does not require any royalty fees for Unisys as it
'Does nothing with the compressed part of GIF files. It simply reads
'4 bytes to determine image size.
