Default jpeg images not showing in my access forms

-Uninstalled and reinstalled Office 2003
-Uninstalled and reinstalled Jpeg filter
-Verified that file and registry key exists

jpegs still will not display, the copied database will display embedded
image controls, however I cannot import a new jpeg into an existing or new
image control

Thanks for you help.

So you did select the jpeg graphics filter for installation, right ?

You can check if it’s been installed at the following path and registry key:

JPEG graphic import filter:
C:\Program Files\Common Files\Microsoft Shared\Grphflt\JPEGim32.FLT

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Shared Tools\Graphics Filters\Import\JPEG

If it’s not installed re-run the setup to add it (you do not have to uninstall, revert to 2000 or install
Photo Editor). If this fails you could try installing the Office File Converter Pack:

Using the Access Image Control.

Me.imgBuildingPhoto.Picture = "c:\Pictures\pict.jpg"

all other aspects of the access database work on this machine except for
displaying the pictures. I do not receive any error message.

I've uninstalled Access 2003, installed Access 2000 and photo editor, and
have the same problem.

Thanks for your help.

It depends how you are displaying the image, eg with a Bound OLE Frame, Access Image Control, or some

other
way.

Bound OLE Frame:
================
Open the table and examine the relevant field to see which application is used to store and display

the
images, eg MS Photo Editor, Paint etc. This application must be installed on the system to display

images
from the table. It must also be the registered application for the relevant file types if you will

store
additional images in the table on this machine. Since this technique relies on registered applications,
installing new graphics software can easily break this approach. Additionally, Office 2003 does not

include
an OLE Server app for jpeg and will uninstall the existing one (MS Photo Editor), which is often the

cause
of problems like this. Finally, note that using Photo Editor to store JPEG can cause an overhead of

from
20 to 200 times the original file size.

Access Image Control:
=====================
This requires the relevant Office Graphics Filters to be installed. Re-run the Office setup and work

through
the optional components to make sure that the filters you need are installed.

On one of our computers Access is not displaying jpeg images. Can you give me
any ideas as to what might be causing this. The same Access database works
fine on other computers. We have uninstalled and reinstalled Access to no
avail. Other programs can call up jpegs.
