embedding image in form

[Dan Cline]

How do I embed a jpeg image into an OLE field in a form?
When I try it I get an icon instead of the image. The
property setting is on "content." Thanks in advance.

Be sure you use the Image icon from the toolbar when in design view and make
sure that the jpeg has the jpg ending. Also make sure you can call the image
up into an image program such as Microsoft Photo Editor or Paint. Some
images developed with Photoshop or other image programs and saved as jpg may
not work with Access. If you have problems opening the image into an image
type program, try bringing the image into Powerpoint and then you can save
that image as a new jpg image.
