Within my Crystal Report, I show 3 fields and a fourth field that you click on to show a picture of a person. The photo is simply an ASP link. Is there a way to show the same three feilds and also show the picture from the ASP link query? In other words, displays the photo here instead making the user click on the link to show the photo?
 
Which version of Crystal are you using? Starting with Crystal 2008 (I think...) there is the ability to put a "location" on an image. So, what you would do is put the three fields on the report. Then add a Picture object that uses a "dummy" image that will be used when there is no URL available. Right-click on the Picture and go to "Format Graphic". Go to the Picture tab and click on the formula button by "Graphic Location". This will bring up a formula editor where you can place the field that contains the location of the object.
