Populating a list box with images

J

Is it possible to populate an access list box with images?
This is what I am trying to accomplish: I have a folder on my desktop with
images. I would like a list box to display all of them. My user can then
select the images he is interestd in. How can I accomplish this? Notice that
I would like to use a list box or a similar control; not an image box linked
to my list box.

Thanks

As far as I'm aware, there's no way to accomplish this using the built-in
Access List Box control.

You could always create a subform that does what you want and use the
subform instead of a list box.

Thanks for your helpful answer. Can post any links or code showing how to
accomplish this? I am pretty sure that I am not the first one encountering
this issue.

Afraid I'm not aware of any links for this.

Just create a form in Continuous view so that it displays rows of data, and
add that form as a subform.

Another possibility might be to look for third party controls that support
this.
