Problem displaying multiple Jpeg's on one page in CR10 2

I am using CR10 and do not use Access, nor the repository. We use Progress Software Corporation's database. We have one table containing many parts with a unique id for each. Then this unique id is used to link it to another table which contains 9 text fields which can hold the location of Jpeg files. Each of the 9 fields may be linked to a Jpeg picture. Therefore, there are many parts which can have 0 to 9 Jpeg links defined for it.

I must be able to display all of these pictures on one page.

So far, I have tried inserting the Jpeg as a picture object and changing the object name to reflect the field name. This has not worked since it always displays the same picture - whether I put it in the Detail or the Group Header/Footer sections.

Is it possible to show all 9 Jpeg's as different pictures on the same page for each part? If so, how do I go about doing this?
 
I don't believe you can do this in CR10, although I'm sure someone will correct me if I'm wrong. In CR XI, there is a property available in the Image object that will allow you to set the image file location based on data in the database.

A computer only does what you actually told it to do - not what you thought you told it to do.
 
CR XI has a dynamic image location option as one of the field properties of the image.

With CR 10 you could use our cViewIMAGE utility. Download a trial version from our web site.
