I'm developing an application that has several reports in it. Many of these
reports have a graphic on them representing something like a club symbol. I
need to have the application be able to load a different symbol into a
configuration table (that parts done) and then use that symbol in a report.
Unless I set up some strange datasource for the report, the report
datasource does not contain the graphic (that is, once a graphic is set up in
the configuration table, I want it used on reports but it has nothing to do
with the data in the report).
So how can I set up a control (presumably something like a bound object
frame or an image control) on the report and then from code load the image
stored in a table into that control? I don't understand what kind of variable
I should declare to recover the image by opening a recordset to the
Configuration table. Nor do I understand how to transfer that image (or OLE
Object) to the control that is supposed to display it.
