There is a handy MS power tool that does this in seconds called image resizer.

its just a small download from
http://www.microsoft.com/windowsxp/downloads/powertoys/xppowertoys.mspx

look at the bottom of the right hand column

once installed right click any image and click the resize image link that appears. Options allow you what size to resize to and if you want to resize the original or make a copy. You can also select multiple files and resize them all at once. I did about 3000 drawing files at work today in less than 5 minutes! - 1 file is pretty much instant and the software doesnt need a degree to operate

hope this helps - Glow
