Comrades.

I am trying to open a bitmap file (.bmp) in a webbrowser control (Microsoft
Internet Controls: shdocvw.dll)

PROBLEM:
When I invoke navigate method on the control, the file is opened by MS Paint
(Default application for bmp files)

How do I open it in webbrowser control?

One way could be: Create a temp HTML file as below:
<HTML>
<IMG SRC="...my file(.bmp)">
</HTML>

Open this html file. It works well.

Is there no cleaner way?

Thanks in advance & Regards
Sanjay.
