Binary Data in Access (BLOB)

[CaryRW]

I am curious if there is a way to include binary data (images) as data within Access. I have a database that currently collects and reports field data. I would like to replace the "Open" and "Closed" verbage with an image (i.e. like a picture of a street signal with a green or red light).

Any advice, as always, is greatly appreciated!!!!!

You can store images in Access but it is generally frowned upon as it creates bloat. Create a link to the image and just store that. I'll try to knock up an example.

Try this quickie. Extract the files into the same path.
