I have a column in my table which contains a hyperlink to a product picutre. I would like for the picture to open in a report based on that hyperlink.

How do I do this? I've done it before, but I can't remember how and don't have that database anymore to refer to.

Thanks in advance for the help!
 
You need an image frame in your report then use this code
in the format event of the report section the image is in.

In this code, [Image] is the field name and
is the image control name

If Not IsNull(Me.Image) Then
Me.imgFrame.Picture = Me.Image.Hyperlink.Address
End If

This assumes that the field in the table is defined as a hyperlink.
