how do i set an images "picture" property in a report using code (1 Viewer)

[Funkyaccess]

HI

I have this bit of code

Private Sub Report_Open(Cancel As Integer)
Me.imgLogo.Report.Picture = gblIMAGEPath & "logo3.gif"

I get run-time 2455 you enters an expression that has an invalid reference to the property Form/report.

Any ideas?

Try changing your code to:

Me.imgLogo.Picture = gblIMAGEPath & "logo3.gif"

I thought that was a answer as well because I have a form that uses the logo but on my report whe n I type Me.imgLogo. it gives me other options and Picture is not one of them. I only found the Picture attribute when I used .Report

You won't see it offered automatically as an option, but the VBA interpreter still recognizes it.

Try it and see if it works for you.

What ByteMyzer says is correct. Not all of the options come up in Intellisense, just like not all of the EVENTS that are available to you for most things are listed on the PROPERTIES dialog in design view. You can access more of them by using the drop downs in the top of the VBA window.

As for the picture, also make sure that there is a backslash in gblIMAGEPath

and if there isn't use

gblIMAGEPath & "\logo3.gif"
