Pictures in a Form Question??

[John]

I have developed a form to where i scan my pictures into
a file and then they are displayed onto my access 2002
form. They were in .bmp format but the pics were very
distorted so i changed them to .jpg know they look
fine..1.which is best ? 2.and why did it change? 3.How do
I connect the right picture with the current record that
i will be entering? 4.also since i changed the file ext
to .jpg the import picture box flashes up when i scroll
through the pictures i have in there,5. How do i get this
not to show up on the screen when scrolling through the
Pics?? 6.Also I want to add knew records with pics and
delete do i do a cmd box for this procedure if so do you
know of any code examples for this?? or how I can achieve
this on my form?

Thanks in advance

that illustrates how to do this.
