"SADF987YU4H5478GHF3654GFH8"= "Sally James"

[NewfieSarah]

Hey all can this be done? I have a field with a signature, This field is saved as a memo field, and displays as "6546SDFASDFASDFSADF654SDF1SDF5SDF361654SADF123SADF4SDF12DJHGJF87GHJ54HJ1GJH8HGJ0230HJ8F789GHJ16847" and I would like to see the name of the person. "Sally James" On My Report. So is there anyway that I can convert "Change" this. Obviously the name changes depening on what record is there, and there might not be on there. Thanks

ANYONE HAVE ANY IDEAS? ANYTHING AT ALL. I WAS HOPING THAT THERE WAS SOME WAY THAT I COULD RETIEIVE IT FROM THAT DATABASE AND BEFORE DISPLAYING IT HAVE IT CONVERTED TO A SIGNATURE AGAIN. HELP!!!

It may well need uncompressing before you can display it.

See this FAQ page on one signature capture product - is this the kind of thing you are talking about?

Then, follow GingerR's tips and post some more detail about what you have and what you are trying to do. Thanks.

Come on, GingerR,

I like being yelled out, especially in CAPITAL letters. It helps me know who to IGNORE.

Sorry all I dint really realize that I had the caps lock on when i wrote the message, since I just caps alot at work I guess I didnt pay much attention to what I was typing. Thanks for all the help I will have a look at what you have give me and I will let you know. Thanks

BillyRayPreachersSon- Thanks for the compression link however I am not sure if that is what i need or not, I am using Access 2003, so would that still apply to me?
evalesthy- What I have is 2 digital signatures on one form. Saved in my database as memo. What I need, it to display the signature when printing a report. If the record has a signautre. If the record has a signature then display it on the report if not then there will be a blank field like all the other fields on my report. However if I just add the field like th others the I get what is in the database, since it is memo I get numbers and letters I need the actual signature that was created when I singed the name, and what is displayed on the form.

Referring to the link that evalesthy provided, it looks like you will need some sort of ActiveX control on the report to display the signature.....

I tred a text box but i got numbers and letters which is what is in the database, so that didnt work, there is suppose to be an active x there according to other but for some reason it wont work for me. Thanks
