IncludePicture path
When I select Insert Picture From File, and then Insert Link To File,
the toggled field code shows "INCLUDE PICTURE ../../..folder name" instead of "C:/folder name." Does anyone know why? The picture I am linking is in the C:\My Pictures folder, so I know Word has room to display the complete path. |

IncludePicture path
It's using a relative link rather than absolute.

Does anyone know why? The picture I am linking is in : the C:\My Pictures folder, so I know Word has room to display the complete : path. That's because "C:/folder name." probably isn't the "actual" path, especially if you're talking about the My Documents folder. The actual path to My Documents for instance may be "C:/Documents and Settings/Username/My Documents" or simlar. The My Documents folder is a special display of that folder that you're provided with to make it easier to keep track of and find. The operating system hides the full path to make it easier to use. The Insert used the full path, so it gets too long to display. Does that help any? Pop |
