Image in form..?

K

Kent J

Hi all,


I would like to put different images (my collegues) to all records and
move through in the recordset in a form.
How can I do this?
If I design a table I cannot find the appropriate datatype.
What should it be?

You should never embed image into your db because it will cause bloating.
Thus the 'proper' way is to simply store the path in a table. thus, Text or
Memo depending on how you tackle the problem.

Take a look at the following sample db. you can dissect them to get all the
coding...
