I am working on a database that has several records. Each record has a
different image associated with it (or will).
I will not be the only person using this database, so I want to make it very
simple to add images to records. I know that saving the image in the
database isn't the best idea for Access 2003, so instead I want to have the
path stored (which will make mail merging work too in Word).
This is what I want:
In the form, on the tab where the image information is, I want 3 things...
- The image itself displayed, once the user adds it
- The PATH of the image in a text box (so they can copy and paste into other
applications if necessary)
- A button that will allow them to browse so they can add the image. (this
button would, of course, also update the PATH and the image that is displayed.
I want both the path and the image updated when the user browses for the
image file using the browse button.
I already know that this will require at least 1 field in the table, and
that it will require some extra code...I just don't know the code.
Any help is appreciated.
