Question : Displaying Picture in Access

Hi All,

What is the best way to display *.GIF pictures on a continuous form.

I have a table with all the file paths, i.e.

c:\Pic\product1.gif
c:\Pic\product2.gif
c:\Pic\product3.gif
c:\Pic\product4.gif

And all the pics saved in the relevant directoy.

Thanks,

Hi,

Options include.... adding the pictures into a table within your DB, which is not a good idea as it will bloat beyond belief.

The fol link discusses a third party app which may assist.

When u attempt to link a pic to a continuous form it wiil show the same pic for each row. When u click a new row it will update all rows to the new pics. IMHO the third party app discussed above is prob the only solution although I have never used it.

I know not the news u prob want, but hope it helps.
