Picture Not Showing on the Form!

Ron Cordoba

Hi,

I am using Access 2003 and want to display a jpg file on the form.

When in the table I can insert the photo by insert OLE Object, then on the
form I want to display these it only shows the file name not the
picture itself.

At home, it shows the picture but here at work the file extension...anyone
know the setting to this????

Please help, Desperate!

This is not the right way to display Image.....!
You Database will grow to very big dimension....!!!
You must insert on Table ONLY the FilePATH
and insert on your Form an Image Control.
On Current Event you load the Image like this:

Me.ImageControl.Picture=Me.ctlPathAssociated

You need a Dedicated Folder for your Image.
