Problem with photo's displaying in in Acess 2003

New to the group but hope to get lots of tips. First one being photos
not being displayed in a FORM

I'm aware of the need for Photo Editor installed it and it corrected
the problem until recently.

I tried adding a new record to the form each record having a picture
field.

Have done the following steps

Open .jpg file in Photo Editor resize and save
Open form go to picture field on form click; Insert Object, Create
From File
Browse to picture click OK, Link OK

Form only displays name of file

To make me more confused is I insert a picture that is working for
another record but it won't work for this field

Being a novice to Access it may be a DUH but hey that's why these
groups are here so any help wold be greatly apprecaited.

Thanks

Scott

Well I guess you play long enough you find a soloution

Instead of inserting from fiel like I did all the others I did 'Create
New, Microsoft Photo Editor 3.0 Photo' browsed to teh pic amd it opens
in Photo Editor I close it in Photo Editor and it's in Form

Quoite certain I didn't do it that way before but hey I'm pushing 51
so who knows

Group looks good so I'm sure I'm only a few task away from posting a
new need
