    AFAIK, Access cannot render DWG files for display in form or report. Are these AutoCAD files?

    If you have a full version of Adobe Acrobat you could use Access to convert a DWG file to a PDF. Then you could probably use OLE or an attachment field to get some sort of result.

    You could try using the Wizard and add an Unbound Object Frame to your report while in Design View.

    I think the only way to display PDF in form is with the Web Browser control and that a report cannot embed PDF. An Image control can display jpg, bmp, png.
