You are going to produce a htm with this code:
<HTML>
<BODY>
<IMG src="file://c:\myimages\myimage.jpg">
</BODY>
</HTML>

It is going to point to the location of the myimage.jpg on your computer.
The location is not going to be the same on Nina's computer.
How is that going to help?

an

In My Computer or Windows Explorer, Tools, Folder Options, View tab, is
'Hide file extensions of known types' checked?
If it is, then you are not going to see the txt file extension.
If you double click on your .htm file, does it open in Notepad?
Txt files will open in Notepad. Htm will open in your browser.

The default is for file extensions of known types to be hidden.
This is why you have to put the name in quotes or change the file type when
saving in Notepad.

It used to be that a period was not a valid file name character, so you
couldn't have .htm.txt .
When the long file name cabability was added, the period was added as a
valid character.

No offense, but
Nina did not post using her email address.
If she emails you, she will not be able to hide her address.
