resize images problem

[Pendragon]

Access03/WinXp

I have a badges report for a convention database that displays a convention
logo based on a field in the table containing the path and filename (set in
the report OnOpen property). This works without issue. The basic image
property name is set to (none) as vba handles which file to grab; the image
is Linked and set to Zoom.

I have a problem where some of the logos are coming in small - I have played
around a little with various picture editing programs so that the logos are
somewhat consistent in size and compression.

If I manually edit the height and width of the image size in the report, the
logos come out just fine. However, if I program adjustments to the height
and width, the image no longer appears (or prints). I have tried setting
these properties in both the OnOpen property for the report and the OnFormat
property for the report detail.

Suggestions much appreciated.

Are you using twips to set the height and width? There are 1440 to the
inch.

I ask because that is often the source of my problems when I "see" controls
disappear or become very small when I resize. I forget and set them to
something like 4.5 instead of 4.5*1440
