Hi, I'm using NextGrid 4, and there is a column that has an image. Normally I load images inside a folder into a Tlist variable, but now I want display images directly from a link, because images are in a server, or load them into a variable but directly from the web.

I don't want to have to download them to a local folder, because they constantly change, I want to display them directly....any ideas?

Thanks....
 
There's no such thing as "direct display". You have to download the image to a local folder and display it.

The trick is just to periodically check to see if the image has changed, and, if it has, download the new one.

Hope this helps.
