trying to OLE photos into Access field up til recently no problem suddenly
now refuses to accept stating Error 3001 Invalid Argument
Tried help within programme still not resolved please advise
 
How big is your mdb file?

Using OLE Embedding or Linking is extremely inefficient with compressed images such as JPEG - there can
be an overhead of up to 200 *times* the original file size. Access has a file size limit of 2 GB, and
when you get close to this limit you can experience various errors, including the one you mention.

If this is the problem then you should either switch to raw binary storage, which has no storage overhead,
or use external image files.
