I'd love to read Steven's presentation, too, if you find it Dave.

Thanks!

Chris,
Yes,
The image embedded in the .exe will always take precedence over a pathed image 
in the report if it has the same file name.

Of course this isn't a problem if you embed the reports into the .exe but as a 
matter of course we leave reports outside the .exe so we can change them at 
will. All images are put in the relevant graphics folder which is included in 
the path setting when running the .exe so that the images can also be changed 
at will.

We also do the same thing with certain VCX's if they are prone to change as VFP 
will also pick these upo externally if they are in the correct path.

Steven Black gave a really good presentation at one of the last Prague Devcon 
sessions on how to path items in VFP to gain the most flexibility.

  I'll try and dig it out for you. I have looked on his website but I can't 
find the white paper.

Subject: Images included in the exe

Hi All

If images are included into the executable and then these images are used on 
reports is there any issues with this?

Thanks

Chris.
