Problem with Pictures

Emmweb

I have a database with student records in a table. Each record (1 per
student) allows for a photo as one of the fields. I designed the form and the
photo control and code from the example Employees database included with a
basic Access install.

When we load a photo to a record, it shows up on the record just fine and
it's location is stored in the table under the "photo" field. However, if you
look at the table, whenever you store a photo, several of the photo fields
for completely unrelated students (and seemingly random) have the the field
contents: []3[]

Where I've typed "[]" is actually a strange square character"

Any ideas as to how that []3[] text is getting put into the photo field of
other records when one record's photo is input?

Emmweb. Question? Im trying to do the same. Can you explain on how you
added the photo to your database. I have a clientele databse and would like
to associate this client with a photo. Can you help?

I copied the code and controls exactly from the Northwind.mdb sample database
that ships with Access. The employee piece of the database.
