Access 2003 runtime & image control

Hi,
I've trouble getting the "Access 2003 runtime" to display jpg files on a
Image control. However, on a different machine with "Access 2003 full
install", I can display it correctly. Does anyone know why?

Yes, the graphics filters come with the full version of MS Office.
However if the user doesn't have office installed they need to
download the Office File Converter Pack
http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/...F0-70E5-4595-8A98-370278F40C57&displaylang=en

Now what is irritating is that there is a security patch for the above
files but it hasn't yet been included in that file. <sigh> So
shortly after the users install the above file Windows Update will
suggest they download and install the following

Security Update for Microsoft Office 2003 File Converter Pack
(KB925256)
http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/...1034629C485&amp;displaylang=en&displaylang=en

You might as well download and install that one too.
