    Placing images quickly

    Hello,
    I need to add a large amount of BMP images in a database of posters, they are small previews of the original prints.

    I created a filed in a table with an OLE object data type. Then I fill this field by a form adding linked pictures to the database.

    Each record of the table has also another field called "ID" wich is a number (01, 02, 03...).


    The name of the picture that I am inserting are exactly as that ID number (01.bmp, 02.bmp, 03.bmp...).

    I would like to find a way to quiclky add this pictures. It takes too much time to place them one by one, since they are more than 2,000.

    Is there a way to design an automate placement?

    Many thanks.

    Adding picture to display in form

    Hey guys,

    I was trying to make a staff database. I've attached what I did so far. However, when I click the button 'Add / Change" to add a photo, I get an error message and a debugging windows opens.

    Can anyone help me in finding out what is wrong?? I'm very new to access too, so I don't know much about coding.

    I took the code from an example database inside my Access 2003 installation.

    I would certainly appreciate the help.

Please reply to this thread with any new information or opinions.
