Default Create name tags with pictures?

Can you create name tags with pictures using A2000?

I have a table with an Employee name field and a field with a link to their
gif picture.

I was able to get a form to work using the Image Control and setting its
Picture property to the gif link field in the on current event.

In the Report (for the name tags) I added the Image control but I can't find
a place to set the Picture property.

The table fields contains both the parth and the name of the picture
file, i.e. "C:\PictureFolder\JohnSmith.gif" ?
In the report, leave the Image control Picture property blank

Code the Detail section Format event something like this:
Me!ImageName.Picture = Me![NameOfField]

Change ImageName] to whatever the actual name of the Image control is.
Change [NameOfField] to whatever the actual name of the field is.
Make sure it is included in the report's record source.
