How to parse img name/path info from container

I have a client who has created a db for odd travel sites. Each record contains four container fields with inserted images. The data will be exported to XML to be read by the Flash app on the local public tv website.

I have read that i can create a calc field that will parse the container data so that the relative path and file name will be exported for each record. The scenarios that i have read about don't address my problem specifically so any guidance would be extremely helpful. this is a pro bono thing or I'd just hire someone. 1600 image names would have to be manually entered otherwise!!

Make a calculated text field for your layout which will contain the path. Use the function GetAsText (container_field).
