OLE object

[CY]

I am working on a database that has several reports containing an image
(logo) at the top of each report. When I tried to copy/paste the image I
got a message that says "The OLE server isn't registered. To register the
OLE server reinstall it.". I have no idea how to do this. All I wanted to
do was copy the logo from the top of one report to the top of a new one. I
found a workaround where I right click the image and select "change to" and
then "image" and this allows me to copy/paste the image. But my question
is where is this image now stored? And if I transfer this database to
another computer or email it, will the image follow? And I'd also like to
make a small edit to the image, but I don't know where to find it. Also, I
assume that by converting the image to a bmp it's now going to make my
database bigger, isn't it?

Can anyone help?

TIA...

You have two options in this case.
You can "link" the picture or you can "imbed" it.
If you link, the report will simply add the image whenever you print it.
If you imbed, the image is saved as part of the report.
With your report in design view, check the image Properties to see which one
it is.
It sounds to me you that imbedded would best serve your needs.

Yes, it's embeddded - so won't be a problem to e-mail it? How can I edit
the picture?

If you again open the Properties on the image, there should be a path telling
you where it came from.
If there is no path listed, the source is probably no longer on the computer.
