Now that I actually edited the HTML file and set a full path in the src for the pictures I can understand why the relative path is not working.
I had used the navigate method earlier and it did not work, but I believe that is because of the way MS word makes the relative src path but I am not sure of this(Ms put the pictures in a subfolder of the main save folder, this subfolder name is the "filename_files/picture.png". This I believe is the reason the relative path fails.
Becuase of the number of pictures that this manual contains and the difficulty when publishing in having to bring this many files with the published version install. I think my best bet is to just supply a MS word document as the manual they can print or view instead of making it a part of my application. I even considered usin a pdf file an this worked, but the side content list did not show as I expected so I aggree with you that MS word is not that great as far as making PDF or HMTL's.
Thanks
Curtis

John,
Your answer about the fully qualified path is correct I went back and used word pad to edit the src= path that tells where the file is and it works correctly.
Thanks
