using text box to change between images

[bfamo]

Hi guys

I have three pictures 160x160 pixels in size that I want to put into my form. However, I want to control which image is visble through a text box.

This means that if I type the number "1" into the text box, the first image is shown, when I type "2", the second image is shown etc....

What kind of object is able to switch between different images based on values in a text box?
I've been trying to google around to find some information, but the problem is that I dont know that to search for.

Does anyone know any words that will give me some good results in google, og maybe a tutorial that deals with this matter?


Thanks

You may use an Image control and set dynamically by code its Picture property.

Hope This Helps, PH.

yeah, that sounds right.

I have also been reading about bound objects and OLE possibilities in my access bible. But I really dont know where to start in terms of VBA code. There must be some dude out there that has faced the same problem as me?

I greatly appreciate all the info I can get, either code, links to web pages, advice etc.

Thanks

How are you storing the images in the database? Once I know how you are storing the images I can give you some ideas.

Life's a journey enjoy the ride...
