ADP and Images

[Tennessee]

Got a problem that I know someone else has had. Im
trying to display a image on a ADP. The image is stored
in SQL Sever Dbase field called Photo.

It was a ole in access, but it upsized it to a binary.

I would like to display each records image on the page
with the reocords text info.
If thats not possible how bout: hyperlink to a folder
that has the image and click on the link. This opens a
new browser with the small image....Any idea how to make
a page that opens on the click and shows that indivdual
related photo in a small pop up????

Please please help

. . . Im trying to display a image on a ADP.
The image is stored in SQL Sever Dbase
field called Photo.

It was a ole in access, but it upsized it to a binary.

I'd wager it did not "convert the image to its binary file" but only
converted the OLE Object field type to binary field type without changing
the contents. If so, see MVP Stephen Lebans' site, http://www.lebans.com for
code/example of extracting the file from the OLE Object, or see
http://support.microsoft.com, articles 119395 and 210486.

The sample imaging databases at http://accdevel.tripod.com illustrate three
approaches to handling images in Access, and the download includes an
article discussing considerations in choosing an approach. Two of the
approaches do not use OLE Objects and, thus, avoid the database bloat, and
some other problems, associated with images in OLE Objects.

If you are printing the images in reports, to avoid memory leakage, you
should also see MVP Stephen Lebans' http://www.lebans.com/printfailures.htm.
PrintFailure.zip is an Access97 MDB containing a report that fails during
the Access formatting process prior to being spooled to the Printer Driver.
This MDB also contains code showing how to convert the contents of the Image
control to a Bitmap file prior to printing. This helps alleviate the "Out of
Memory" error that can popup when printing image intensive reports.
