URL path for images
Hi All,
I have some .jpg images on my local drive.i want to create a desktop report with a table which shall have a column with the local drive path details.This needs to be shown as a URL/link such that when a user clicks on this link the respective image is rendered .
fyi.. i am not invoking any image with a https://www... kind of path.
Please can you let me know if this is feasible and how..
Regards
