Automatically load a picture into Publication (.pub) picture fram.

D

DBodell

I need to be able to set the link address/path for a graphic being loaded
into a publication to the path stored in an ODBC datasource I am using in
Mail Merge. For example, I am creating a sign for a particular garden plant
(we are a garden center) using data that is stored in my Access plant
database. In the record for each plant is a field which stores the path for
the .TIF picture of that plant. In Access, I use this path to set a displayed
picture up for viewing on screen. However, I need to be able to use Publisher
to preview and print signs of the plants because Access cannot perform some
of the other text formatting functions I need.

I used to be able to do this in WORD/97 mail merge but changes in WORD/2000
made my code no longer work.
