Hi

I have a form showing jpg images.

when going to next record a dialog appears in the middle of the screen with
text:
Importing C:\pictures\pic1.jpg

Some of my users are very annoyed about this because when the use next
record to fast sometime the system hangs and the have to shut down the
application.

I have tried to set the "local machine\software\microsoft\shared
tools\graphics filters\import\jpeg\options\showprogressdialog" to no.

But I still get the same error. Still showing the same dialog.
Is there anything else I can do?



Thank you in advance

It depends how you are logged on to WinXP. I think if you have no other
accounts setup on your machine and log on as Administrator then you can
simply add the required Reg Key to:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\ Shared Tools\Graphics
Filters\Import\JPEG\Options
Remember you have to add the Key for each Image type you will be displaying
in the Image control.


If you have multiple acounts then you have to add the Reg Key to each
seperate account or HKEY_CURRENT_USER. Something like that but I honestly
don't remember for sure off the top of my head.

Hi Stephen

Thank you for your suggestion, but I only use 1, Administrator here.
Windows accepted the change as well it is now set to No.

But the effect on the error loading jpeg images....the dialog still showing
here.

Do you know anything else I can try?

Mattias
 
I'm sorry but there is nothing else to try. Over several years, I have
helped many people with this issue and the registry edit has never failed in
a single instance.

Did you modify the HKEY_CURRENT_USER as I suggested?

Hi again

Both HKEY_CURRENT_USER and HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE are set to No..
Dialog still is there I am sorry!

Mattias
 
Since nothing seems to be working can you reboot your computer and then post
back?

Hi

Have rebooted development pc now and also tried to install the application
on a laptop, setting its keys to No as well...but still the same on both pc:s.

Can it be my code displying images on the current event that causes this?
Do you want me to post it here?
