The HTMLPicture property handles a collection of custom size picture being displayed in the HTML captions, using the <img> tags. By default, the HTMLPicture collection is empty. Use the HTMLPicture property to add new pictures to be used in HTML captions. For instance, the HTMLPicture("pic1") = "c:\winnt\zapotec.bmp", loads the zapotec picture and associates the pic1 key to it. Any "<img>pic1</img>" sequence in HTML captions, displays the pic1 picture. On return, the HTMLPicture property retrieves a Picture object ( this implements the IPictureDisp interface )
