photos

[angie]

i have a form and i want to add photos to a large number of records. instead
of selecting "insert an object"...,etc and spend 3 min to add a photo, i
would like to create a command button that tracks the photo location in the
pc and prompts for the file name only. could i do something like that and if
yes how?
i wouldo also like to ask for the recommended photo file format for access
databases and if there is a limit concerning capacity.

Also, search the forum for 'images' or 'pictures' and you'll get more info.
