Jang,

I just want to correct a statement in your original post. You said that

According to the help files, FM automatically uses relative pathnames for images if they are below the level of the FM file.

This is not true; the image files do not have to be at a level lower than the FM file. They just have to be on the same volume as the FM file. If on the same volume, the FM file can be below the image files in the hierarchy.

I would also like to emphasize one of Art's points---train your translators to ignore missing images. They should be trying to work WITH you rather than AGAINST you, even if they are cheap.

Good luck,
Van
