Hello list. I having a problem with embedding html graphics in a text field, 
and I'm not sure that I understand why. I am working with a text field with 
list behavior, and I am trying to embed an image at the beginning of each 
line.
I have tried a number of different methods. if I try -

put "<p>" into variable1
put "</p>" into variable2
put variable1 & line 1 of fld "Master" and variable2 into fld "Dimension"

everything works fine. If I try -

put "<img src=" & quote & "11430" & quote & ">  " into variable1
put "</p>" into variable2
put variable1 & line 1 of fld "Master" and variable2 into fld "Dimension"

("11430" being the id of the image that I am using), the ability to 
highlight lines in the text field becomes completely arbitrary, some lines 
working and others not.
I have also tried it without quotes, like this -

put "<img src=11430>  " into variable1
put "</p>" into variable2
put variable1 & line 1 of fld "Master" and variable2 into fld "Dimension"

which produces the same arbitrary results, and also like this -

put "<p><img src=folder.gif>  " into variable1
put "</p>" into variable2
put variable1 & line 1 of fld "Master" and variable2 into fld "Dimension"

which also produces the same results, some lines working and others not. 
Each time that I try it, the lines which work and the ones which do not are 
different. While I have not included all of the code that is involved, I 
have made a small stack and recreated the problem in it, and I would be 
happy to send it to anyone who thinks that they might have a suggestion as 
to what the problem might be. Thanks for the help.
