Files on the network: Displaying png images with GuiXT Controls works fine, but for local images only. I need it for images in a network folder and tried:

Control (11,100) (15,120) name="my_image"

  progid="\\WEBD\productimages\101_Web90x90.png"

but get the error message:

No control with progid "\\WEBD\productimage\101_Web90x90.png" found.

Is there a way around?

The \\ characters at the beginning are not interpreted correctly. Please use the more precise notation progid="file://...", i.e.

Control (11,100) (15,120) name="my_image"

  progid="file://\\WEBD\productimage\101_Web90x90.png

For details about the notation please see the Microsoft documentation of the Windows function "CreateControl" that is used by GuiXT:
