Ok,
At the moment I have a common dialog box that allows the user to preview th path to which he/she will allocate a file type.
Once they have selected a file of their choosing they then select Open, and the file type path is then inserted into an invisible field.
Once the field has the path in it I want the form to automatically update the control source of the picture box (and thereby refresh the picture with the new image).
* The reason I am choosing to store pictures in this way is because I am having real difficulty getting access to preview file types other then bmp (when using OLE objects). So I thought that if I create a field that stores a path somewhere in the database I could get around my problem with the OLE's.
Any Suggestions Will Be Much Appreciated
Cheers
