picture of any type

Not all formats support transparency.
Converting the files to GIF's would solve the problem

Or try PNG format if you want a higher resolution or more colours than a GIF allows.

I have an image (created in photoshop) and have saved it as both .png and .gif, yet the transparent area still shows white in my Access Report.

Because the Size Mode property is 'clip', setting the Back-Style property to 'transparent' only has an effect on those parts of the image box that are larger than the image itself - if that makes sense (??)

Any other suggestions guys ?

Dear All,

I have found a good sloution for this...

what you have to do is all simple,
1 -- create your picture with GIF without background,
2 -- Import it to MS Word.
3 -- Copy it and paste it to Access form
4 -- Set the back style (property of image) to Transparent

and that is it. you will do it

try it

cheers,
FARZAM
then
