Unbound Form Picture (is that possible)

[boredpilot]

Hi, is it possible to have an unbound picture for the Forms background. Oh and im using an embedded picture since the chap im emailing this too wont know how to link the picture.

I cannot find an option to make a forms picture unbound so that it would be on all the forms.

Many thanks in advance
Neil

Have you tried using the Unbound Object Frame? Although, if you're trying to set the background image of all of the forms, set the Picture property of each form to your image, and set the Picture Type to "Embedded

I think the best bet is to set the Picture property for a form, which will make the picture chosen the background. You can choose 'embedded' for Picture Type. After this, you can modify the Forms/Report tab in Options and set the Form Template to the form you have just created. It is best to add and format any controls you wish to use. This template will affect all databases, not just the current one, so reset the template to Normal when design work has been completed.
