Suppressing progress bars on image loads

[Bill]

Access 2000 applications that link jpg images have
in the past had the progress bars suppressed by
setting a key in the Windows Registry to "NO".
I.e., images would load without the fluttering of
the progress windows.

My development environment is XP Home and
several of my clients are also on XP Home. However,
though my system is "flutter-free" when images load,
my clients systems continue to flutter even though
their appropriate Registry key has also been set to
"No".

Has there been any additional requirements imposed
since the advent of XP?

Thanks,
Bill

There are SEVERAL Registry keys pertaining to
the importing of JPEG images.... I think I counted
five. Anyway, it wasn't entirely clear which one
necessarily related to imports resulting from LINKS
specified in the Picture property of an image object
in Access Reports.

Since I don't ever want to be bothered by progress
bars flashing up anywhere, I set them all to "No".

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\
SharedTools\Graphics Filters\Import\JPEG\Options
or
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\
SharedTools\Graphics Filters\Import\JPEG\Options

are two of the keys encountered and it was probably
the latter that pertained to Access.
