Graham, I'm just learning on Photoshop, but I found an effective and easy 
correction by using Filter>liquefy>forward warp tool. I
just masked most of the image first (freeze mask) to a line a little below 
the left roof line then used a brush the size of the
entire left roof line to push the curve down flat. I did it on a duplicate 
background layer, of course. Only a minute or two to do
it all.

I found an excellent series of free tutorials on this stuff on Radiant 
Vista, thanks to a suggestion by another LUG member. Nathan,
I think or maybe Daniel?? Sorry guys.

Anyhoo, I've sent you your picture with the adjustment layer retained so you 
can have a look. Pretty cool tool and another vote for
the marvellous Photoshop's capability.

Cheers
Hoppy

Sorry for the misunderstanding. I wouldn't know where to start to straighten 
a crooked line but I would be interested to know how 
it's done.
