I am using Access 2000. I am trying to put together a directory of all the
children I work with in a children's home. There will be 10 records on each
page. Each record needs to include the child's picture, so I need to know
how to make a different picture show up on each record. I have already
figured out how to make each record in a FORM show a different picture by
using an image frame that is bound to a field in a table that contains the
path to the individual photo for each record (using an event procedure). The
same process does not work in a report, though, as the "OnCurrent" and
"OnUpdate" options are not available in the properties windows in a report.
I've tried to put a bound object frame in the report and an OLE Object field
in the table, but I have no idea what I am to put IN the field in the table
or what I am supposed to bind to what, so basically, I am at square one when
it comes to adding unique photos to each record in a report. (I tried
copying Visual Basic Code from the "Catalog" report in the Northwind sample
database, as that report contains different pictures, but that didn't help.)
I am sure this is actually a pretty simple procedure, and I usually can
figure this stuff out through the Help menu, but this one has proven to be
beyond me. I'd really appreciate any help I can get. Thanks.
