Associating files with records in Access

H

I'm trying to get an image file to be associated with a record in
Access. I'm trying to accomplish this so that when I print out a report
of that record, the accompanying files are printed off with it. I got
so far by using OLE, but the bits which I hoped would print off the
tech-spec (attached file) are actually printing off the icon of the
image file -- any ideas?

Make sure that the object in the table and/or the query does not have
the Display as icon box checked. You can see this by using the right
mouse button to open the Document object menu and then selecting
Convert. Uncheck the Display as icon box.
Hope this helps,
Bob

Bob,

Found the problem - when trying to add it was being added as a package
rather than as an image!
