I am trying to insert a hyperlink field which will link to a JPEG file in a
folder on a server but for some reason, I am unable to do so. I can enter
the same information in a browser, and it pulls up the image that I want.
Doesn't Access like JPGs?
Thanks,

There are three approaches to handling images in Access illustrated in the
sample databases that you can download from http://accdevel.tripod.com. None
of them use hyperlink, but all work for me with .jpg files. Take a look and
see if they are useful.

Thank you Larry. This was a big help. I can now view thumbnail JPEGs in my
Form for each record in my database. My only problem yet to resolve is
making it work on the server. Right now I have my database in a secure
folder at: www.mydomain.com/db
I have all my images in a folder on the server: www.mydomain.com/images
Is this a situation where I can set the Base Hyperlink address to : www.mydomain.com/images
and use the image names in the Form:
images/picx.jpg ?
Thank you once again in advance for any assistance you can give me!

I don't know if you can do what you want across the Internet unless you do
use a hyperlink... there's a Microsoft Inet ActiveX Control for running your
browser (but that's about all I know about it), which might be of help.
