Filename displaying with image

R

Rob Parker

Using Access 2002:
I have downloaded a tutorial database, which has a form containing a bound
object frame to display a picture. The picture field in the underlying
table has an OLE Object datatype, and when a picture is inserted (either
directly into the table, or via the form), the table entry contains the term
"Package". The pictures which are available to be inserted into the
database (as steps in the tutorial) are .bmp files. My problem is that the
form displays both the picture and its filename (only the filename - the
path is not included) in the bound object frame. I've never seen this
behaviour before (I've got several databases which display pictures, via
several different methods), and I can't find any obvious property which is
causing this behaviour.

Any suggestions? BTW, the supplied .bmp files contain only a picture - the
text is NOT part of the image!

TIA,

Rob
