Default Inserting an OLE Object from a table/query

I am creating a report and inserted a bitmap file from a table.
On the report print preview, the report is showing the image with the file
name.
I just want the image to show not the file name. Please help.

Default Inserting an OLE Object from a table/query

Hello Gracei,

I noticed that nobody answered.

I think it is because you are basically saying that you have already decided
on using a usually-bad bad way to store images (OLE) and, now that there are
problems, you are saying that you want someone to make the usuall-bad way
work, rather than changing it.

The alternative is to store the images in a seperate folder, sort the path
and file names in 1 or 2 text fields, and then use cond to display them on
forms and reports.

Hope that helps a little
