Conditional Formatting for Image box on Continuous Forms - Again

Hello,

This is still driving me crazy.

I am trying to create a continuous subform down the right hand side of
my main form. The subform simply contains a list of thumbnails that I
want to display in a continuous form. I used to have a tall skinny
subform that just scrolled up and down, but now my list is too long
for the maximum height.

When I created the continuous subform the image displayed in each
record defaulted to that of the current record. Advice that I've
received here does not seem to have helped. This is the advice that I
have received to date:

1.
Advice: Upgrade to 2007 because that will do what I want to do.
Action: I upgraded. Bad advice. Images are treated the same as in
2003. Ie: that doesn't work.

2.
Advice: Use MSFLXGRD.OCX and look at
http://www.lebans.com/conditionalformatting.htm
Action: Great idea! I can see the demo. I want to do something
similar to the thing with the flags. However, when I try to add the
control to my form I get the following message:

"You dont have the licence required to use this ActiveX control"

Now what do I do?

Geez! My problem is simple ... give me an Image control that works
the same way as a text box in a continuous form. i.e: displays the
image associated with the right record. Is there no one else in the
world who wants to do this? I am at a total loss and extremely
disappointed with MS and MS Access.

Can anyone help me out?

Thanks

Costa
