photographs in forms

[KK]

Hello,

I'm trying to include a photo of staff members on their forms. I've created
a text field "photo" in the table which contains the full path and filname
of the jpg files required.

Reading the help pages it seems that I have to create an image file on the
form and write Vbasic code into it. I think I can do this OK, but am I
understanding the help info correctly or is there something simpler I'm
missing ?

Thanks

KK

Create field of type "OLE Object"... with this you can store the picture as
either a bitmap, or a link to the bitmap image that displays depending on
how you set the Ole Type Allowed property on the "Bound Object Frame"
control on the form.
