Re: BMP image in forms

Good news. I discovered there was an application called Nero (I think) that
did images. I deleted it and problem solved.
I'm doing a new post for my other problem.

I'm working in a database that I've had for years and has years of data in

mess up what is already there, and displaying correctly.

I tried changing the association with BMPs in windows to Paint as there was
another photo editing software on this new laptop. Didn't help. In addition,
since I'm having problems with this new laptop, I figured I would use my
desktop until I resolved the problem. The desk top is now saying to restall
the OLE server and not working either. I don't know what that means and
needless to say I'm discouraged beyond words right now.

And if your form is in single view mode (ie., not a continouous form),
another possibility would be to embed a WebBrowser control and use it to
display your image using its URL; see:

Control Access", etc.).

The standard Bound Object Frame control is full of problems. You can try
to make sure that MSPaint - and no other imaging program - is the only
associated program with BMP images files but even then, I'm not sure that
you won't have any problem.

Instead of using the Bound Object Frame control, you could try the DBPix
control from Ammara. I never used it personally but this looks good.

Another possibility would be to download and store on the local disk the
images from the database. You can then use the Picture control to display
them. However, this won't work for continuous forms.

I have a frame in the form already, which contains BMPs that show
correctly.
It's the newer ones imported on this new laptop that won't show
correctly.
How would I tell is the current frame is unbound? There is no reference
under
properties.

Insert
Object to insert it into the form. Using the same access database and
attempting to insert a BMP into the same form on the new laptop, the
picture
is only a thumbnail with a file name. I can't figure out how to get
the
picture to the normal size.
