I have a pdf form with the size of U.S. paper (8.5x11 inches I think). I will convert this pdf into Jpeg and I wish to paste this picture on an access report in the same size. I will be placing controls like text boxes on this picture. Please let me know how to paste this picture withe the same US paper size. Thanks for your help.

Hi. Are you talking about using it as a Background Image of the report?

in Design view of your report, add an Image Control.
make it big enough to cover the entire page.

you Need to add code to the Report's Load Event:

private sub report_load
me.Image0.Picture = "path and filename of the jpeg"
end sub

In that case, I would say in the Properties Window of your Report, while in Design View, select an image for the Picture property.

Hi. You're welcome. Glad to hear you got it to work. One difference between using an Image Control and a Background is an Image Control will be subject to the Margins settings. But since you're only using an image of a PDF form, then I guess you're okay. Good luck with your project.
