Image Problem

[Ben dotNet]

I have a form with an image control. Everything works well when the user
clicks thru each record slowly. But if they quickly scroll thru the data,
the Image box will cause Access to abruptly shut down (no error messages,
just disappears).

Does anybody have any advise on how to tackle this one?

Hi Ben,

One method you might consider is to add a tab control to your form, and place an unbound
image control on page 2 with page 1 being the default page. Then use the Tab on Demand
idea that is shown on the FMS site:

This way, the image won't load until the user clicks on the second page of your tab
control. In the form's On_Current event procedure, set the focus back to page 1. That
way, if they start racing through records, they will always be on page 1 of the tab
control.

Just an idea....
