Picture Managing

[madvalpreston]

Hi

I have created a small testdb. In table 1 I have an id field and a picture field called path which is set to be an OLE Object data type.

In the table I right mouse clicked on the path field and attached an image.

When I add the filed into a form it just shows a small icon with the name of the file and does not show the picture. I get the same result with a report.

Could someone please advise what is wrong or how I get the picture to show.
Ideally in the form I would like to browse to another image and change the picture if I need to.

Any ideas

Thanks

Hi

Seems abit complicated for my level of expeirence. Where I eventually want to get to is

Have a form that handles logos and text for a report. The Log may change, so I want an easy way to select a new logo and use that one.

I dont want to (if possible) use lots of coding, as a nother user may need to change the logo who does not know access at all.

I will take a further close look at your links, but if you ahve any other ideas pelase let me know.

Thanks
