JPGs not displaying

[cawillwe]

I know JPGs are a pain to work with in Access, but that's all I have to work with.

I have a table as follows:
ID: Autonumber
Object: OLE Object

And I created a form based on this table, with a bound object frame pointing to Object.
When I choose insert object and choose a .jpg, it own't display on the form, even though I have it set to display the content. The frame appears just as it did before I inserted the object. When I double-click on the frame, Microsoft Photo Editor opens (as it should) and displays the photo. If I choose a .gif for the object, it displays properly. Any ideas? Photo Editor IS associated with .jpgs through Windows Explorer. Thanks!

Try using a copy and paste technique. I have an OLE object in my form and there is almost always trouble with "insert object" but not copy and paste. Good Luck!

I can't even see the photo when I go back in. Also, is there some other way to browse and get the file in correctly? Unfortunately, I don't have enough confidence in my users to say "just copy and paste it in there" to be able to use that.
