Picture linking

[Parasyke]

I have a form that has a bound textbox displaying a picture path (in
another folder) for an image (e.g. C:\Documents and Settings\My
Documents\My Pictures\SymbolVRC 6940.jpg). I need this actual picture
to display on the screen and most importantly to display on a report.

Any clues on this?

Thanks!

In the form, add an image control. Use the form's OnCurrent event to set the
image control's .Picture property to the file path. This will allow you to
display only one picture at a time though. You do pretty much the same thing
for the report except you'll set the image control's .Picture property when
you open the report or when the form changes.

What if I change records on my form? Will the new displayed path in my
textbox bring up the respective image for that new file path?

Use the form's OnCurrent event to update the image control's .Picture
property:

Me.ImageCrtl.Picture = Me.PicturePath

where PicturePath is a text control with the new record's image file path.
