I have an Access 2003 adp that I'm testing under Access 2007. The
application manages image files for educational testing. Images (gifs and
tifs) are stored in a directory. The database stores test questions along
with the file name of the associated image. A form to associate images with
questions uses an image control to preview the image when the user clicks the
filename.
With Access 2003, both gifs and tifs display normally. With Access 2007,
the gifs work fine, but trying to display a tif generates an error 2114,
"Acces doesn't support the format of the file <filename> or file is too
large." At first I thought it was an issue with the Access 2007 image
control or a missing graphics filter. But if I create an Access 2007 accdb
file with an image control, it will display the same file just fine. The
problem only occurs when using an Access 2003 adp under Access 2007, so I'm
thinking it has to do with memory management.
Anyone else seen this or have any suggestions?
If I create a test form in a new accdb file under Access 2007, the image
control displays both gifs and tifs just fine. But if I open the Access 2003
adp file under Access 2007, it will display the gifs, but I get an error
displaying a tif.
