How to insert picture with relative path
Hi!
Thank you. I suggest next. 1. When you use {FILENAME \p}, you use absolute path! But you can easy insert Field NCLUDEPICTURE and type there relative path. It works! 2. It's interesting, that a picture, included via field is not the same as picture, included via standard Insert means. The last is more complex and became as MS Chart (visible only in Page layout mode). More of it you can rotate this object. Where can I read what is the this object in truth ?

How to insert picture with relative path
Hi Sevilho,
I think you have relative and absolute paths confused. Using the {FILENAME \p} field gives you a path 'relative' to the current file. You cannot insert a relative path directly into an INCLUDEPICTURE field. Even if you omit the path, Word stores the absolute path internally. -- Cheers macropod [Microsoft MVP - Word] "Sevilho" wrote in message ... Hi! Thank you. I suggest next. 1.

How to insert picture with relative path
Hi!
Hi! confused you  {FILENAME \p} gives you a absolute path ! you "upbuild" by relative path, and path became absolute I suggest you more simple construction. You cannot insert a relative path directly into an INCLUDEPICTURE field. You CAN !!! 1. Menu Inset group Text Quick Parts Fields.. 2. Choose IncludePicture and check option "Data not stored within document" (optionaly) 3. Type relative path in 'Filename or URL' field, samething "images\\Swix Aurora.jpg" 4. Press OK Then press Shift+F9 and check that the path is the same as you type. Hi Sevilho, I think you have relative and absolute paths confused.

How to insert picture with relative path
That is an absolute path
No, relative, I have checked. Try, do. If your insert picture via field code there in no ANY difference with 2003 Word. And you may use any type of path, as convinient.

How to insert picture with relative path
No, it's a relative path. You can tell it's a relative path by
inspection because you would not be able to identify absolutely where the file "images\Swix Aurora.jpg" is on a given system. Is it c:\images\Swix Aurora.jpg ? d:\images\Swix Aurora.jpg ? Or what?

Hi Peter,
Yes but, even though it's not apparent, Word (tends to) store the remainder of the absolute path in its meta code. -- Cheers macropod [Microsoft MVP - Word] "Peter Jamieson" wrote in message ...
