Bound Object In Table

[fenhow]

Hi,

I have a DB that has a field in a table called "LETTERHEAD1" the datatype is a OLEObject.

Many reports call this "LETTERHEAD1" to the header of the page as a bound object frame.

Any Idea on how I can modify the data that is showing up in "LETTERHEAD1"?

On the report it is blank and i cannot figure out where in the heck it is getting its information?

Thanks.

I create a Bound Object and and in Properties section on Picture I select the file (Logo.jpeg). Look at a Query to provide the Company Information and then create a SubReport to do the Letterhead. A SubReport at the top of the report just in case the logo changes and you don't have to change all the reports.

I never store the images in a database field.

To add to Simo's post the reason you shouldn't store images directly in your DB but store a link instead is because if you store the images directly your DB will grow rapidly in size.
