FP2003 and picture presentation

I

Ian

I'm having a strange issue with FP2003 displaying pictures referenced in a
database. I've followed the MS recommendations as detailed at the following
document : http://support.microsoft.com/kb/825515 which explains how to
setup a database field to display a picture. The field has been created and
populated with the correct file reference. The files have been copied into
the desired FP2003 area and published. If I look at the directory on the
WEB server I can see the picture files and they open OK. I then created a
picture reference on my site and re-pointed it to my database:
<%=FP_FieldLink(fp_rs,"Picture")%>.. When I access the a record with a
picture I get a RED X and the properties state that the file is not
available, even though it is.

Any ideas would be appreciated as I'm pulling my hair out on this one.

Thanks

Ian

Does the Server support ASP?
Does the page have an .asp extension (not htm)?
Did you properly set up a database connection in Frontpage?
What is the URL?

And to answer your questions, all set as expected.
