Getting source/properties of bound object frame

I have a form which contains a bound object frame.

The control source is an OLE object field from a table.

The type allowed is linked (so it dos'nt store the entire image in the database)

On my form I can insert a picture fine.

Now I want to add three unbound fields on my form.

One that display the hyperlink (source), one for width and one for height.

Off course when I look at the properties of the bound frame, the SourceDoc is blank, because the control source is from a table I guess.

Without opening the table for that record, how can I access the the properties of the inserted/linked picture?

Thanks
 
Sorry I REALLY need help/advice on this, so I had to bump it up.

How can I read the properties (file location and image dimensions) of an image that is displayed in a bound frame, but only the link is stored in an OLE object field in a table.

Thanks
