OLE Problem

[Bob Vance]

In my database I hace an OLE picture as a logo, but if I change the database
to accde and email it to someone they lose the OLE Pic , Is there a reason
for this!

You've offered several possibilities for the same problem. We need to narrow
it down.

1. When you create the accde on your machine, does it lose the logo?

2. If you email the accdb, does it lose the logo?

3. Assuming that you haven't used accdb only features, if you create an mdb
or mde, does it lose the logo?

Thanks Arvin,
1 No
2 Zipped and email it to my self no problems
3 No I dont lose it only my friend when I email it to his machine, He did
say something about a Macro Warning but my Database does not have any Macros

The macro warning occurs when any kind of code is in the database. Set macro
security to Low, at least to test if it will help. In scenario 3, does he
lose the logo if you send him and MDB or MDE?

Also, before you make an MDB, make sure that you don't have any references
set, that might break on his machine (like to external programs ... Outlook,
Excel, etc.)

In my database I hace an OLE picture as a logo, but if I change the
database to accde and email it to someone they lose the OLE Pic ,

you should use an Image-Control with an embedded Picture.
