Displaying Hyperlink Contents in Report

[dave]

Please can anyone advise if it is possible to display the file contents
of a hyperlinked file in a report.

I have a field in a table for each record which stores a hyperlink
address to a picture on a separate PC. (I have done this to prevent the
database becoming massive due to the number of pictures it will have to
store).

My problem is that when I run off a report, I need to be able to print
out the picture in the report not the hyperlink address.

I have tried various methods but to no avail, any help would be greatly
appreciated.

Dave.

Dave,
I too desire to do a similar task. The links show up on the report but do
not function. Of all the searching I have done it seems the hyperlinks will
not work unless the report is exported to Excel or Word. That seems silly to
me. I was hoping to find a work around here in the news group but no luck so
far. If you solve your problem I would be greatful to see the solution.
