Hi all,

I am trying to load an image from a different directory in a Java
program (not applet) by using:

   myImage =
Toolkit.getDefaultToolkit().getImage("d:\\devl0\\java\\image\\gfx\\bug2.gif");

   myImage = Toolkit.getDefaultToolkit().getImage(".\\gfx\\bug2.gif");

which fails. When loading from same dir as app code, e.g.:

   myImage = Toolkit.getDefaultToolkit().getImage("bug2.gif");

it works. I've also tried UNIX-path variations on the first by using
relative paths etc. to no avail. And, yes, it runs under W95.

TIA,

Lars
