Hello all,

I have a simple form that shows some data from a main table and 1 OLE Object. The OLE object is 1 of 5 images of the US all in different colors. The image that is shown depends on the value of a "Rating" field. Also the images are stored as records of type OLE OBJECT in a seperate table. This works fine but I would like to expand the form to include 5 images of Mexico in differnet colors.

Is it possible to create an Object frame that can check a field to determine country of origin and rating and then select the correct record source to get the correct country and color?
If so, where would I do this, within the expression builder or vb?

Thank you very much,

Jimmy Shaw
