Hi Everyoune - I need your help! I'm trying to create a database for my
church that will display a picture of the family or individual who's record
is active on my form. It seemed straight forward at first, but I can't get
it to work. I'm using Access XP 2003, but the Menu box indicates Access
2000 file format. My field type is OLE Object. In my form I right click on
the field box then I select "Insert Object ..." another box appears in which
I select "Create from file" I select the file (photo) and click on "OK",
but instead of seeing the expected photo I see the filename. Then if I
double-click in the field box the picture comes up in "Picture Manager".
What I'm I doing wrong? Is there anyway to just have the photo displayed
within the actual field box on the form? TIA - Rick
