AHA! Now I understand your concern. Here is another snippet from the
documentation that should help you:

--------------Excerpt Begin----------------
The SaveAs method saves the image using the name specified in the Image
parameter. If the
image document already exists, it is overwritten.
Upon successful completion of the SaveAs method, the image display window
continues to
display the original image; the Image property value remains unchanged.
Continuing to
display the original image ensures that the image on display is the same as
the image
specified in the Image property. For example, assume the currently displayed
image is
payroll.tif and the value of the Image property is also payroll.tif. When
the SaveAs
method is invoked with its Image parameter set to payroll98.tif, the image
is saved as
payroll98.tif. The image display window continues to display payroll.tif,
and the Image
property value remains unchanged at payroll.tif.
---------------Excerpt End

The confusion is the use of the words "Image property" to mean two things.
The image property of your imgedit object will remain the original tiff file
you opened. The image property of the SaveAs is the name that you wish to
apply to the saved page. So, your code would open file.tif. To do that you
set the image property of the imgedit control to file.tif and use the
display method. You are at page 1. You do a saveas using file1.jpg in the
command line in the first position to indicate the image property of the
SaveAs. The control DOES NOT CHANGE THE DISPLAYED IMAGE to the jpg. It is
still using your multi-page tiff. Your code would then move to page 2, and
use the saveas to save page 2 as file2.jpg. You can use a loop using the
pagecount property. And you can increment your saveas image property by
appending the page property (holding the currently viewed page number) to
the original file prefix.

Hope this helps.

Paul, 

I think I didn't explain the problem correctly. 

Each of my TIFF files is made up of several pages. The
ImgEdit displays one page at a time, and the SaveAs
command saves only the page that's currently being
displayed into a new file (when saved as BMP/JPG). 

So I'll need to run the SaveAs command on each page of
the selected tiff file, and that will create a set of
BMP/JPG files for that TIFF file.

Would there be any other option?

Thanks,
Sudhir
