Trying to Display bmp in Form

M

MA71

I have a form that is linked to a table with multiple records - I'd like the image to change depending on what name is displayed on the form. I've tried multiple ways with either the image staying static as you scroll through the names, or no image at all.....HELP

Thanks!

Suggestions: If possible reformat BMP to GIF or JPG because they will save
space if you have lots of images.

Use an image control. Store the images in a subdirectory (folder) outside
the MDB then insert the path-file into one field, then reference it. Ex:
C:\MyImages\Battleships\USSNewJersey007.Jpg.

The link will then be automatically associated the other data for each
image. When you select another record all data plus the image updates as
fast as you can spin through the records. Not quite smooth enough to make
your own movie but pretty fast...
