I have an application that makes use of a number of .JPG and .GIF
files.  The application runs fine when running in either JBuilder or
directly with the class files and the image files in their appropriate
directories.

My problem occurs when I package all the class and image files into a
JAR file.  I point the application to the JAR file and try to run it but
it can't seem to find the image files.  It DOES find the class files
however!  I've coded all the file names without using a drive letter
(i.e. "\MyApp\Images\myimage.jpg").  I don't understand what I'm doing
wrong.  I'd greatly appreciate any insight.

Thanks,

-Tom
