That won't work unless your clients have access to the specific share...
You will need to serve it up using CFContent if it is outside the web root.

Hi,
I did try <img src =
"file:\\nameofshare\clientname\CF_Chart_Share\testimage.jpg"> before and it
didnt work obviously bcause of missing servername.
I didnt try with servername yet. Let me do that and I will update as to what
happened.
Thanks all.

No matter what, find a way. Because thats what winners do.
You can't improve what you don't measure.
Quality is never an accident; it is always the result of high intention,
sincere effort, intelligent direction and skillful execution; it represents
the wise choice of many alternatives.
