I saw that ... it allowed me to enlarge an NTFS partition and shrink a
FAT32 no problem though.  NT bootloader didn't load properly afterwards,
but a quick emergency repair sorted that.  That's something I should
have mentioned to David ... make sure you update boot.ini properly in
advance and that you have an up to date ERD handy.  And seeing as the
FAQ says it isn't possible ... do the impossible at your own risk.
