I have a table with about 12,000 records. Each record has a hyperlink set up
to a path where pdf files reside -- although each record has the hyperlink
path set up, there isn't an actual pdf file for every single record --
eventually there will be. Right now, the user can see the link, but has no
idea if a file actually exists or not. He can figure it out once he clicks
on the link and the pdf file does not show up. However, I would like the
form to show him somehow if there is a pdf file for that particular file or
not -- without manually going in and setting a field separate to "yes/no." I
thought I could perhaps set up a bmp file that says "No PDF file Available,"
which would show up if there is no pdf file in the physical location of the
path. But, I am at a loss on how to do it. Any help at all would be
greatly appreciated. I do not know Visual Basic, but can cut and paste code
if given enough instruction. Thanks so much!
