    embedding youtube clip into the access form-is it possible?

    1. i'm doing my first steps in the program right now,

    I need to embed youtube clip without downloading it to my computer.


    is it possible in some way?

    2. is there anyway to import pictures into the form so they'll link to a web address?

    thank you very much 4 any help!

    look at the field type 'hyperlink' (in the table)

    one doesn't put these type files into the db...you put their hyperlink into the db...then if selected it will launch the linked file outside of the db.

    thanks, but what about embedding the clip

    itself into the form? is it possible?

    i know i can use hyperlinks by changing the data type of the column..
    the problem is to embed the clip right into the form directly...

    It's not really possible. If you're looking for that level of functionality you really should be building a webpage on top of the database, I think
