I am setting up an inventory in our company store for products for visually impaired people. We have about 125 items. Unfortunately, some of the items are quite similar to one another which makes it sometimes difficult to order said items. What I would like to do is add a small image to each item's display on my form. I have tried unsuccessfully to do this from inserting OLE objects to using attachments.


Thanks in advance for any help you can give to me.
 
How are ya olliegracie . . .

[ol][li]Were [blue]Graphic Filters[/blue] included in your access install?[/li]
[li]Did you include an [blue]OLE[/blue] field in the approriate table?[/li]
[li]Is the form displaying the pictures in [blue]single or continuous view?[/blue][/li]
[li]Does the form above use a [blue]Bound Object Frame[/blue] ... bound to the [blue]OLE[/blue] field?[/li]
[li]Your picture files should use an extension allowed by the graphic filters! ... if not, conversion to an alternate graphic format may be required.[/li][/ol]
As a reference see: Handle/Display images in forms/database
