Pictures In Forms

I have pictures imbedded on my Access 2002 database. Now, when I go to add
new pictures, they seem very pixalated. What am I doing wrong?

Probably stretching the picture to fit. A better method than embedding is to
use an Image Control (it's a native control in the toolbox) and store the
path to the picture. Then you can load the picture when you load the record.
For one way of doing that efficiently, try the sample database at:
