add and show images in form

[nahum abramovich]

hi



i want to add images to a form in other way than i use today.

today i use the regular image adding -i copy the address (where the image is) inside text box and i see it on my form (inside square).

problem is when i want to remove the access file to different position - then i have to change the address of all images.

is there a way to add an image (like attachment) so it will be built in inside the access file and also that ill be a bale to display it on the form?

[Plus ... a little about the form ...It is a form with navigation buttons that I can flip through and see all the images displayed for all items]

thanks

There is an Attachment data type that would embed the image. Most of us don't use it since it can cause the database to exceed the 2GB limit.

If you move somewhere so can't load the images then presume you are also moving the image files?

Changing saved path would be fairly simple with Find/Replace or UPDATE action SQL.

Also, don't have to save entire path in text field. Save actual image name only then build full path with an expression.
