How to Display an image on a form

Please Register to Remove these Ads

Hi all,

I have a table that has a field that contains the actual windows path to where picture file is located on the hard drive.
For Example "C:\Documents and Settings\Administrator\My Documents\My Pictures\Images\image1.jpg".

How do I create a box on a form and display this picture in it?

Please anyone give me the solution.

Thanks

Hi LilyMarie,

You can store the image directly in the table instead of just storing the link, (set the field data type to OLE Object). Then you'll be able to show the picture on the form when you're viewing the related record via an Object frame.

Cheers,
