I like to build a file that will contain a picture for each record ie.(itemno & picture). The pictures are now stored in a folder as individual .bmp files. How can I write a vb6 program that goes through the entire file one record at a time, uses the itemno as a key and grabs the picture that has the same name as the itemno & .bmp and copy it into the picture field (an OLE field)of the record?(ACCESS Database). What is the statement that I can use to load the picture. I used LOADPICTURE but it gives me an error. Thanks.
