Access 2007 Image Control on Continuous Form

[xwordmark]

I have an impage control ([Image70]) bound to a field (PhotoFilePath) which is a valid file path to a picture. However, the control is blank when I load the form.

I read somewhere (I can't remember where) that I needed to put the following code in the 'Form_Current()' event of the form:

Me.Image70.Picture = Me.PhotoFilePath

Now I get and Error 2220 (the database can't load the image).

Any suggestions???

I didn't think I needed the code - I only tried it because when I load the form there are no pictures.

I was aware of the thread you posted, but it still doesn't explain why there are no pictures being displayed when I open my form!

Any other suggestions?!?!?!?

In the properties, under control source what exactly do you have?
For test purposes put a text box on the form with the field that holds the path. I assume that is "photoFilePath". Post the value of this field. Is that path a complete path?
