HELP
Can anyone help me ??

I am tryng to display images (pictures of people) in a multi record form...ie a person details table. The graphic control on the form should display the graphic (jpg file) which is in one of the record fields (ie the path of the image file eg.... c:\mypics\joebloggs.jpg)
I have managed to do this in a form showing single records one at a time ..BUT HOW DO I DO IT IN A MULIT RECORD FORM ???? where each or the records has a different picture
The main form is of Depts and the subform is the members of the dept.... I want to display the details including a picure of the members in each dept

Thanks in advance
 
Not possible in continuous forms using file paths.
To display differnet images on different records the images must be embedded in the records.
This goes against most advice of how to handle images in Access which would recommend your approach of external files, but this can't work for continuous forms.
