Pictures for Access Database (1 Viewer)

[jleval]

Does anyone no where I can get some better pictures for my access database. The standard ones are really not all that great. I am looking for a stock pile of pics that I can place in my files so that I can draw upon them whenever I am designing my database.

I just havent had much luck designing buttons in GIMP.

Search the web and see what you find. In your Database Directory then create a sub-folder Images\System. If these images are embedded each user will need to have a set of the images. You could put these images on a server but I prefer storing them locally.

The next problem whatever images you use they need to be sized for the use in buttons, elsewhere the image sizes can be manipulated.

Images bloat the database (even A2007 and A2010 but earlier versions were worse) so use them sparingly.

Sorry I did mean to say link them rather than embed them.

Sorry to deal you a yardborough!
