Loading a picture crashes form

[CCorreia]

I'm currently working with an Access 2003 database that retrieves images from
a specified folder to display with each record. I have found that if I
scroll or click through the records too fast the following error messages
will pop up and then the loading bar window will hang, requiring a full
system restart before it will go away. I am assuming the picture load time
is the problem.

Can anyone tell me how to either work around this issue or at least how to
keep the loading window from requiring a system restart? Thanks!

The error messages received are as follows:
1) -2147417848 Method 'Picture' of object '_Image' failed
2) You can't go to the specified record.
3) Importing C:\Data\Access\Images\(Picture).jpg <-- Will not close

Here is a prior post of mine on this issue:

The one thing you must do is turn of the "Loading Image" dialog. If you
don't,
and quickly scroll through the records in Form view, or page quickly in
Print Preview, you run the risk of crashing Access. Use the Registry mod at
the Access MVP site:


Additionally, two issues in regards to the Registry modification pointed to
here:
http://www.mvps.org/access/api/api0038.htm


1) The Registry key MUST be "No" NOT "no" or "NO"


2) On systems with XP or on systems with more than one user account,
you must add/modify the key in both HKEY_CURRENT_USER and
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE.
