Hi,
I am making a real estate database for my company. I am new to access. I
made a picture field and I want to have different pictures for every record.
My problem is no matter if I have an OLE filed or not I cannot see my
picture in the form and report views. My other dilemma is that I want to
create ASP code to connect the database and pull up the information from the
web. So my questions are:
1- What type of field should the picture field be?? (OLE, Text or what)
2- How do I make this picture appear in the report and Form views? I would
prefer if they were file locations because then, the database is small in
size.
3- Last, how do I make this appear on the web?
I am actually wiling to pay a developer to give me a code and a working
access template if they have.

Generally speaking, don't store images in your DB. There is a huge
overhead for each image that you store - your db will bloat quickly.
The best approach is to keep them in their own directory and store the
path to them in your db.
For more on that see... http://www.mvps.org/access/forms/frm0030.htm
To get this on the web you will need a separate application - ASP or
somthing else. This will most likely involve VBScript, ADO, HTML and
probably some Javascript.
Still you wouldn't store them in the db use a different directory.
A testing site I have developed that uses stored images is at... http://www.traderann.com/

I'm working on distributing a database using VS Tools for Office, and
am having trouble with linked images on forms/reports. The image
objects have a default path\file set on the .Picture property, which
becomes invalid when the user installs the database (ie: c:\devpath\
becomes c:\program files\mydbapp, but the .Picture property still
points to c:\devpath\) The problem is that I don't *know* what
installation path the user will select,...

Access 2003
I've been experiencing some problems with my "monster" database the
last couple of days. I imported all objects into a new database
yesterday, which pretty much stopped the crashing problems, but here's
something weird: Whenever I copy an object (reports so far), I am
able to open it and make changes, but when I try to save it (without
closing), it appears to save (message box goes off), but it doesn't.
Then, if I try to...

Hi,
I noticed that by adding background pictures to my forms the
application looks so much more interesting and professional. I want to
keep just texture simple backgrounds in order to prevent distractions,
but even these make a big diference.
I use access 2003 on Win XP
I also realize that such pictures cause the application to bloat much.
But after zipping it is reduced back to a small size so it can be
transmitted across the net.

Hello folks,
I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>".
The problem is that using the GNU compilers, it seems that the internal comparison operator "<=>" tries to promote arguments from unsigned to signed.
This is as boiled down as I can make it.
Here is my compilation command:

Windows 11 and 10 have less user interface control over operating system update behaviour than previous versions of Windows. In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...
