however... my mdb did go from like 2 megs to 15 megs.. I think it IS storing the DB's external images or something.

Awesome! it's not erroring any more... Thanks a ton! I cant believe how long it took to get this thing figured out!

Changing the image to Embed doesnt embed the images that are called from my DB too? only the first image selected is embeded?

Yikes... no can do on that one... the file would be HUGE.. even then.. I am 99% sure i Tried that.

hmm ok.. well thanks for your insight on it.. anyone have any idea how to use the form's Error event to cancel the message?

UNC paths? the drive letter changes because the project is on a removeable HD and i am always using it on different computers. also, like i said.. sometimes the path changes... becuase of versioning.. and how they do things.. E:\accessprojects\myproject1.1\images\whitebox.jpg...

see how this Magic card has images in the textbox. the (W)(T): Prevent the next 2... and the (B)(T): Target creature gets... I am looking for the same thing. Other cards have symbols thoughout the text like:

Your right, they are cards. Print Preview the Report and you will see the cards data is populated. If you go through some of the cards you will eventually see a card that has a (US) or a (D) or (SD) I would want to replace the (US), (D), and (SD) with custom Icons. I dont have any of these...
