Show images in a control within Access

[Orjan]

Does anybody have a suggestion of a software or component to use if you want
to display JPEG or TIFF images in a control within Access?
I know that Office can do this but my customer don't want to install Office
in his PC since he is only using this PC for this Access application.
I am looking for some share- or freeware that can render various kinds of
imagefiles.

A2KLoadJpegGifGDIPlus.zip is an update to the function to allow for the
Display of Jpeg and Gif files on systems that do not have the Office
Graphic Filters installed. TIF and PNG formats are now supported via the
Microsoft GDI+ DLL. The GDI+ DLL is freely redistributable and available
directly from MS here:

http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/r...eleaseid=32738

or on this Web site:

GDI+DLL.zip
Please take a moment to read the redist.txt file contained in
distribution archive. This file explains how and where to install the
DLL.

The GDI+ A2K version can easily be converted to A97 but you will have to
manually change all of the ENUMS. Frankly I am getting tired of
supporting both A97 and A2K versions mainly due to the lack of ENUM
support in A97. :-(

A97LoadJpegGif.zip is a database containing a function to allow for the
Display of Jpeg and Gif files on systems that do not have the Office
Graphic Filters installed. Here is the A2K version: A2KLoadJpegGif.zip

NEW - April 05 2003 Ver 5.0 Developed to allow Access RunTime
installations to display Jpeg files in a standard Image Control.
Provides functionality to load JPG,GIF,BMP,EMF,WMF,CUR and ICO files on
systems without the Office Graphics Filters loaded.
Originally developed for Systems with Access Runtime only. Supports
transparency in Transparent Gifs. Allows you to resize Images on
Forms/Reports at runtime with no loss of Image quality.

Windows 98 has a bug in the GDI's handling of Metafiles. That along with
the resource issues with Printing Access reports with a large number of
Images means you should not use these functions with large reports on
Windows 98. The bug is fixed with Win2K or higher.
