Attaching Digital Picture to Report 1

[tpearo]

I,m creating an Access database for my laboratory.
I provide reports to my customers from our analysis and some digital pictures are part of the reports. Is there a way that I can write a report and attach the picture or place the picture in the report. This is a dynamic database and each report would have a different picture. How do I select the proper file or picture?

Just insert a picture on the report. Then in the OnFormat event of the details section of the report, set the Picture property of the image to the file you want. For example:

Image1.Picture = "\\path\YourPicture.jpg

Of course, you'll have to either store the picture path in your database OR name each picture with an id that the program can recognize (like P1758.jpg where 1758 is the key to your customer table).
