PSP7 And Transparent PNG

I've done it before, I have the images to prove it, but for the life of me I couldn't work out why I couldn't save an image with alpha transparency as a transparent PNG using Paint Shop Pro 7 (which I bought ages ago, I think from Amazon). It turns out, it is possible, but only if you use the "optimizer" (unless anyone can correct me).

Select File -> Export -> PNG Optimizer
On the "Colors" tab make sure "16.7 Million Colors (24 Bit)" is selected
On the "Transparency" tab make sure "Alpha channel transparency" and "Existing image or layer transparency" are selected

Then do what else you want (I've stuck with non-interlaced, for example), and hit OK. As if by magic, it now saves your alpha channel transparent image in PSP as an alpha channel transparent PNG. Perfect for using in IE7 or Firefox.
