I would like to have a graphic print out on a crystal report based on another piece of data on the report. I can manually get a Bitmap image on the report, but I want to get it there automaticlly based on the data in another field.
 
Rob7,

The only data you can include in a report based on a field - including images - must reside in the database or a database itself - Crystal does not have the ability to retrieve images outside of a datasource.

I have gotten around this by creating an access db with one table and storing bitmaps and jpegs as blob fields (binary)
and linking the access table to my report.

Hope this helps
