Insert images in report ???

[Benouche]

Hello,

is it possible to insert images in a report (using some VBA or ..) ?

Let's imagine I have to create many cards every end of year ..
In my database, I got all the needed informations: Name, Adress, Type of card, ... and the path to the picture of the card owner.

If I can create a report displaying all the info including the photo, I'll directly use the exported pdf ... and I'll be very happy !!!

Thanks in advance !

Benouche.

I don't see any problem, as long as images are tiff or bmp. Stick to your guns

Pabloj,

it seems my question is a bit childish .. but still I don't get it !

If I display the dimension 'Image path' in my report, I'll get the string 'c:\MyImages\Photo.bmp'.

How do I do to say to BO to insert the image itself !!???

Benouche,
You can get this done by insert-> Pictures and selecting the image file you want in imaage.
