Embedded Pictures

[Dick Bange]

I have posted the message below several times with no
responses. Am I in the right place? Can someone direct
me to where I should pose this question or is my
description laking. Any help would be appreciated.

I have been embedding pictures in a field and displaying
that field on a form using insert PhotoBase Document.
Recently an icon rather than the picture is displayed on
the form. This only happens with the new records; older
records still display the picture. Any idea what my
problem may be? The database is only 122 mb so I don't
think I have exceeded any limits.

insert a image box on the form and use the code below, it
will show the photo for each record that has a photo name
and path in that field.

Private Sub Form_Current()
On Error Resume Next

Me![ImageFrame].Picture = Me![FileName]

End Sub

When you embed the picture there is a checkbox for linking as an icon is
this your problem? Another possibility is that your computer has lost a
reference to the PhotoBase document. For instance, I discovered if someone
that when someone installed Quicktime, they allowed the install to take over
many image formats. When trying to add bmp files to a form, the images would
default as package icons and not the actually image. Has anyone installed
any type of graphics software?
