I am using the Microsoft template for Issues Tracking (Bugs). I would like
to add a field to the Issues form for users to submit screen shots of their
bugs.

I have added memo field to the issues table and have included it in the Open
Issues query, but I have not been able to cut and paste a screen shot.

Any help will be appreciated.
 
You should change the feild from memo to an OLE field. this can be done by
going into design view and selecting OLE from the drop down.
Next click into the OLE field and choose insert object from the menu bar or
right click and choose insert object .
In the dialog box choose Create from file, thentype the path and file name
to where the file is or choose browse if you don't know the exact path.
Last click ok to inbed it.

You coul alsoo link to it; but if the file moves you will have to update it.
