The simplest way is to store a complete URL. Either something on the web: http://www.ashsiii.com/images/Larry.jpg or a local path on the hard drive: file:///C://WINDOWS/system32/oobe/images/wpaflag.jpg Of course, the local path may be missing or wrong when moving data to another PC. It would be nice if it could contain a relative reference: /images/wpaflag.jpg In this case I think it would interpreted as relative from the folder with the openjump.bat file. regards, Larry Becker On 10/10/07, Giuseppe Aruta <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > --- Larry Becker <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> ha scritto: > > > I talked to our internal SkyJUMP users and they were > > excited about the > > capability to get picture links on the map, so > > perhaps I can justify a > > few hours of work time on the project. > > > > Here are some ideas: > > > > 1.
