Hi again fds_fatboy.<br />
I've not used resource files before, how do they work? I am using VB6 by the way.<br />
<br />
Re: the &lt;img&gt; tag,<br />
What I meant was that the DLL would output the string &quot;&lt;img src='images/logo.gif'&gt;&quot; and as long as the file &quot;logo.gif&quot; is in the &quot;images&quot; directory (within web scope), then the browser will display it.

Re: the <img> tag,

<div class="content wysiwyg-content">
Is it possible to embed an image (say, a GIF file) inside a DLL? like a VB executable would store a picturebox-control contents?<br />
<br />
The DLL will be used by an ASP script to return an HTML string. I could just reference it by building the &lt;img src&gt; tag into the string and have the image stored separatley on disk, but I want the DLL to be completely self-contained.<br />
<br />
I reckon it may be possible to do it by encoding the image in Base64, but I thought I would ask EE before I waste any time on it.<br />
Any examples would be nice.

Visual Basic is Microsoft’s event-driven programming language and integrated development environment (IDE) for its Component Object Model (COM) programming model. It is relatively easy to learn and use because of its graphical development features and BASIC heritage. It has been replaced with VB.NET, and is very similar to VBA (Visual Basic for Applications), the programming language for the Microsoft Office product line.
