    I have inserted a thumbnail preview control to my form. I then call it's function displayFile() with a string that points to a local html file (not a URL, of course). I get a FALSE result from that function, no matter what I do. The files I try to preview are ok when viewed in a browser, and when I am looking at their preview in Web View mode (inside the folder), it works as well, just not in my application. What gives? Can anyone give me some insight into this strange component? Thanks, Aric.

      Is this the Kodak Image thumbnail control, or another one? Cheers, Frank

        Nope. Not the kodak thumbnail. I'm talking about the one in the dll webvw.dll (under system32). I have gotten answer from Microsoft that this control is not for public usage... this sucks! it only works when being accesses by a specific control (being Internet Explorer). I hope the MS split will fix such political issues in the components. I hate politics and dirty manipulations. Aric.
