Load Picture(OLE) from code

[johnugly]

hi,
I want to load a picture into a report(CR9) from code, i.e. VB.NET.
Anyone knows how this can be done?

blobobject, pictureobject, none of these have a load property, and I cant cast to OLE Object

From VB.NET you need to load your image into a field in a recordset and then pass that recordset to the report object.

I've developed cViewIMAGE which does this inside a COM data driver and it works great inside a subreport with some other data from your report. The COM driver works with CR 8.5 and later.

CR XI includes dynamic images as one of it's new features so that might be worth consdireing
