I have two forms, in separate access db's, with pictures going into an image control. In the larger of the two forms the transition from record to record is quite normal with the associated picture displayed.
In the smaller form there is a brief period when the entire detail section of the form goes white. This occurs at the time the image control gets the new picture location.
The code initiating the picture display is the same for both forms but with a different path.
Before using the imagecontol in the smaller form I was calling a url to display the photo in an eternal viewer. This worked without the temporary whiteout but the image was floating and usually landed in an inappropriate place. That image also needed to be manually closed to avoid a buildup of instances of the viewer.
Any suggestions on how to fix this will be gratefully received.
I'm happy to upload the form if required.

Code:
Me.imgPhoto.Picture = path & Me.txtPhotoNumber & ".jpg"
