I had a procedure that used to work on v7703 now it does not.
This just embeds images from our network drive into a PDF/HTML output report.
Here's some sample code, I placed the image on the C: drive of the server, it displays the picture name with an APP QUERY command, but the image is not shown.

Thanks for the help.

APP MAP IMAGES C:\Users\wfadmin\pictures\
APP MAP IMAGES2 '\\networkdrive\Pictures\'

APP PREPENDPATH IMAGES
APP PREPENDPATH IMAGES2

APP QUERY IMAGES


DEFINE FILE CAR
IMAGEG/A20 = 'IMG_6083.jpg';
END
TABLE FILE CAR
SUM
IMAGEG AS '' NOPRINT
BY TYPE
WHERE TYPE EQ 'SEDAN';
ON TABLE SET PAGE-NUM OFF
ON TABLE NOTOTAL
ON TABLE PCHOLD FORMAT PDF
ON TABLE SET STYLE *
$
TYPE=HEADING, PRESERVERATIO=ON,
IMAGE=(IMAGEG),
POSITION=(6.200000 2.550000),
SIZE=(2.000000 1.000000),
$
ENDSTYLE
END

What do you want to accomplish, just a image in the header / footer, or something that's related to data (TYPE in your example)?

Is this report on the reporting server or in the WebFOCUS repository?

Sorry, I don't understand the difference between the reporting server and the WebFOCUS repository, I believe it's in the repository.

I'm just trying to get an image in the Header, the actual code reads an item number, concatenates a .jpg and dynamically attaches the image belonging to the query. I can't get an image to display through the style sheet.

Does the image show in any other format? As a test could you see if the image displays in FORMAT HTML?

It does not display in HTML format.

I have a feeling that the way the path is defined has changed from version 7703 to 8105.

What if the image is in app path? For instance if you put the image in baseapp, will it show up?

This works for me for PDF in 8.1.05. I had to add a HEADING to get it to work though.

APP MAP IMAGES C:\ibi\WebFOCUS81\ibi_html\javaassist\

DEFINE FILE CAR

It does not work for me when I change PDF to HTML in 8.1.05.

ThE code below works for me in 8201M. It puts images in the heading, subheadings and the data fields.

Thanks everyone.

My original code was missing parenthesis around the IMAGE in the style sheet and it was not kicking off an error until I used some of the code you supplied to simplify everything.

I think this used to work with the error in 7703 but not in 8105, but I don't have an old version to confirm.

That is one thing that you will notice is that there has been a lot of "code tightening" in WF8+
