OLE Graphics not updating

I have created several reports and they have the following:-

A logo at the top left which is an OLE object "Create from File" and link ticked, linked to logo.bmp.

An address which is an OLE object "Create from File" and link ticked, linked to a word document called address.doc.

The log and address are edited with the appropriate customers name and address.

This works perfectly on 18 computers dotted around various sites, however I have 2 sites where it didn't work and although the updating activeX display came up it showed the original objects that were in the reports when created.

I installed vbrun60sp4 onto these computers and the address.doc then updated via the ActiveX control but the logo.bmp still does not update via ActiveX.

Has anybody any clues as to why?



 
Well no replies to this one so I had to solve it myself.

Crystal uses Paint to update bitmaps, if it is not installed the bitmaps won't update.

So make supe Paint is installed.
