I'm trying to put a logo on a report. If I embed the image, then every time it changes, I have to modify the report. Not what I want. (Read 150+ reports..)
I don't want a linked image either. It has 2 problems. One is that a change in the drive the app is run from would cause problems. Second is that there is a bug in that if you import a report with a linked image in it, no further changes to the design are possible.
I can always do a table join and return the image with each record, but that isn't really appropriate where you have 100,000 records. I don't in this DB but others I have do..
So, what I am trying to do is have an object on the report with a logo pulled from a table. I haven't found out how to do this properly yet.
Anyone?

A couple of methods are available:
1) Add a hidden Image control to the form in question. Load your "default
Picture" into this control. Your statement is incorrect that the Image
control cannot contain an Image without a valid/existing path. In design
view, once you select an Image via the control's Picture property, it
remains embedded.
Now whenever you want to display the defaul pic simply do something like:
Me.ThisFormsIma geControl.Pictu reData =
Forms!NameOFthe HiddenForm.Imag eControl.Pictur eData
or
2) Load the default pic into an Image control.
Copy the control's PictureData property to a table containing a Long Binary
field
When you want to display the default pic simply copy the contents of the
field to the PictureData prop of the desired Image control.

In the On_Open event trigger of the REPORT I want the logo displayed in, I put the statement
Me.Image5.Pictu reData = Forms!frmNameTa gs.ImgLogo.Pict ureData
to which I get an error 'Runtime 438 - Object doesn't support this property or method.'
(Image5 is the name of the image in the report, and ImgLog the name of the bound-OLE field on the form.)
This is Access XP, if I didn't mention it before.

I tried your option 2. I added an image (not bound OLE) to my form and then used the same statement as below. And it worked. :-)

Option one did not work because:
1) I stated the use of the Image control not the Bound or Unbound OLE Frame
control
2) You would have to place the code in the same Section as the relevant
Image control.
I prefer the second method you got to work because it hides the logo from
the end user.

Hey guys. A new question:
I want to use an STL libarary to hold a bunch of objects I create.

Hello.
I wonder if literal constants are objects, or they're only
"naked" values not contained in any object?
I have read that literal constants may not to be allocated
by the compiler. If the Standard is saying that "object is
a region of storage", I deduce from that that literal constants
aren't objects because they may not be alocated as regions of
storage in the memory.

Hello,
I learned that there are five kinds of static objects, namely
1. global objects
2. object defined in namespace scope
3. object declared static instead classes
4. objects declared static inside functions (i.e. local static
objects)
5. objects declared at file scope.
