I have a logo that appears on 20-30 reports...should I embed the logo or link it to the reports? Speed and the size of the front end database are a concern.
Thanks!!
 
link is the better option here; ie. its one linked file versus 30 embedded images; thus the overall of size of your mdb would be reduced, and of course maintenance of the system is easier; if the logo changes, simply change the one file. Each report may take marginally longer to load, but generally spreaking this is insignificant.
