DISPLAYING LINKED IMAGES IN A REPORT
I have several questions regarding displaying linked images in a report.
1. Records without image display the image from the previous record with an image. How do I keep this from happening? 2. The report is to be preview only on the screen. How do I display the report review without the blank spaces on around the report? I want to display the report in place of a continusous form becuase a continuous form cannot displayed linked images. Thanks, RT |

Include a blank image... it doesn't have to be many pixels wide or tall... and set the link address to point to it, if the actualy address is Null. 2. The report is to be preview only on the screen. How do I display the report review without the blank spaces on around the report? I want to display the report in place of a continusous form becuase a continuous form cannot displayed linked images. I don't understand "blank spaces on around the report"? If you could clarify, perhaps someone could assist. Are you using the CanShrink/CanGrow properties? Those work in/on the Detail Section... you pretty much have to properly size the headers and footers in Design. Larry Linson Microsoft Access MVP |

DISPLAYING LINKED IMAGES IN A REPORT
Larry,
Thanks for the reply. I want to use the report preview in place of a continuous form to display the reoords and their linked image selected in a category. In the report preview, the report is displayed within the report-preview borders. There are spaces or gaps between the actual report with the top, bottom, left, and right report-preview borders. The users get frustrated because they have to drag the horizontal bar to have the report displayed in the middle of the borders. I would like to display the report in the right position so the users do not have to move the horizontal bar, they only need to scroll up or down to see different records. Can you help?

DISPLAYING LINKED IMAGES IN A REPORT
I still don't understand -- what the "spaces or gaps" are nor what is
causing them. If I size my report properly when I design it, and use the CanShrink and CanGrow properties so that controls resize themselves in use, I don't end up with a lot of white space. Are you saying that there is white space _outside_ the preview report image, that your report just doesn't fill the screen? Are you maximizing the window?
