Use pictures that aren't bmp

[piester86]

I am trying to show multiple pictures in a report. The pics are in a jpg format. I can't get the picture to show, unless it is in a bmp format. Is there any way to use the jpgs? I currently have a table with a path and ole object (all of them jpgs)

Thanks!!

re:

Hi,
they should display if you have the Office Graphic Filters installed...if not and you do not want to install them then check this solution.
Furthermore, I would scrap the OLE datatype field and only use a text datatype one to store the full text strings to the external image files.
Then use those at runtime to display the images. You can find a good sample tutorial of this method here.

Good luck
