You are welcome.

That's correct, the 0001.txt file would be your HTML document and the
UnKnown.001 file would be your image file.

I don't know either right now, but I can tell you that the same behavior is
exhibited here. Using your HTML file as a template I created a .mht file on
a machine that is using IE6 and then ported ported that .mht file to a
machine that is running IE7, just as in your case, the image was not
displayed when the .mht file was opened in IE7.

I then created a .mht file on the machine with IE7 and ported it to the
machine that has IE6 on it and the image was displayed in the .mht file just
fine.

So on this end, creating a .mht file with IE7 and then porting that .mht
file to a machine with IE6 will display the images just fine. However,
creating a .mht file on a machine with either IE6 or IE7 and porting that
..mht file to a machine with IE7 will not display the images in the .mht
file.

Good luck,

Donald Anadell
