If a cell in a Access Pivot table has a path to a bmp-file on my harddisk,
how can I set up a link so that the picture automatically opens when I e.g.
double-click the cell.
Thanks!
 
Make the datatype for the field OLE Object. You can right
mouse click on the cell to add the bmp. Once this is done
you can double click the cell and it will open the file
in the default program for bmp on that computer. This
requires that you manage the bmp files in a location that
will be the same reguardless of what computer open the
database. Network location. In otherwords, if the file
resides locally it will not be available on another
computer.
