[vtkusers] What's wrong with this TCL script?

Hi all,
The following tcl script should extract regions from a BMP file, but it 
doesn't act as I expected.
It uses vtkConnectivityFilter to extract regions from the BMP file having 
the ScalarConnectivity set to true.
It extracts the largest region, but GetNumberOfExtrqctedRegions 
returns a huge number. (it seems like to be the number of pixels falling 
into the extracted region and the image contains 8 connected 
components)
What should I do to this code to fix this?
This code was generated by VTKGUI 1.0 and runs without problems...
Thanks again,
  MB

PS: If my problem (extracting connected components from a 
vtkImageData without using ContourFilter) cannot be solved with VTK 
and I need to write my own routines, please let me know...
