Pictures List and Forms

T

Telesphore

In John Viescas book "Running MS Access...", the data base ""Books.mdb" has
a form in which appear the pictures of the authors of different books, like
this:
frmAuthors
Viewing Mode: pictures from C:\Running MS Access...\Authors\Pictures...
BORLAND.bmp...
Design Mode: Dependent Object Frame; Control Source = Photograph

A query for the form is:
qryAuthorsSorted
Viewing Mode: Legend (Title Bar) = Photo; Record = Bitmap Image

The query is based on the following table:
tblAuthors
Design Mode: Field Name = Photograph; Data Type = Object OLE
Viewing Mode: Legend (Title Bar) = Photo; Record = Bitmap Image

My question: what can make the pictures appearing on the form?

When I try to do the same for a frmStudents in our data base, no pictures!
Is there a macro, a vba code for that? I didn't find it.

And the words "Bitmap Image" don't appear neiher in the table, nor in the
query!

Thank you for the help
