I have figured out how to add a field type picture to a database table but have not been able to figure out how to replace that field with the desired picture programmaticaly (ie with a replace statement). Each record will need to have a different picture.

Any help would be appreciated.
Thank you.

If you are going to use a general field, be advised to use the LINKED argument, otherwise you will be embed an instance of the associated graphics editor in every record.

This has both space and performance implications - better still, IMHO, store the path\filename in the table instead and set the field to be the .Picture property of an .Image control.

There are a number of threads on this topic in the forum, such as thread184-39989, thread184-45672, thread184-80127.
