>No, actually I meant generating some HTML document which would include all of the documents to show - text, images. Then you'd point the browser to this HTML and the images would come in within the frames. The trouble is, images need to be on disk (no General fields and such stuff), and you have to stuff full relative paths, substitute backslashes for forward slashes in the paths etc, but that should work. It wouldn't ask you to spawn an external app for a .html file, that's for sure.

Yeah, I think I understood your concept. I was only using my example to suggest (I don't know if this is so) that the browser will not directly support a .tif file. Let me ask you this question: "Suppose you built your HTML document and within the HTML document, you included a hyperlink to a bunch of different documents, one of them being a .tif file. When you click this hyperlink to the .tif file, will the browser be able to open the .tif file within a frame in the browser or will it have to open the .tif file in the Wang Image Editor?"

>I've laughed myself, when it said "this program was naughty and should be spanked from module ... using hex whip".

Hey, if you want to spank Foxpro with a hex whip, you'll have to build a function in C++ to do it. Wouldn't be worth the time. The more you punish FoxPro, the more it punishes you.


>A set of wrapper classes. It works like a browser, it uses a browser, yet it doesn't completely look like a browser. I had another power out so I'll have to restart drilling into it.

This sounds pretty cool. I'll have to check out the web site you sent me.


>I'll send you something similar, which generates a table from arbitrary data, and the table is a HTML table. No nice GUI so far, but it generates decent HTML.

Much appreciated. Can't wait to take a looksy.
