Would Like to modify this Access form to Load Pictures

[emax79]

Hello everyone . I have found this excellent picture manipulating access form . It has all the functions i would like to achieve . The problem is I can't get it to load a picture ! . I am fairly new to vba . I have a idea why i can't load the pictures . It is built to load pictures from a pre determined folder and using "infraview" ? I would love and very much need to load the pictures from my window explorer . From my documents etc . Can any of you experts maybe manipulate and change the VBA code to open pictures from My windows explorer or my Documents ? I am enclosing 2 forms . They both are very similar and derived from the same source program . I would like to make the changes to the "image Manipulation" db . I am so new to this stuff and I really could use some Help. Thank you in advanced .
Eric Maxfield .

I've made some modification so you in a form can choose in which path infraview and TempPic1, TempPic2 and TempPic3 are.
Open form "PathToTempPic" double click in each "field" and hit the Save button at last.

Wow thank you JHB . It works well. It works from of course Infraview . Do you have any thoughts why it must use Infraview Sir ? I just am curious if you had any enlightening comment . I would like to use it on any pic on my computer . I don't really understand what infraview does so uniquely that it is necessary for this application to run . See i am concerned about the user having to do to many functions. 1 .send the pic to infraview.2. send back to access etc . Do you know exactly how that process is to work with this application . Or do i just need to install infraview and everything will work accordingly . Pic load automatically etc ? Never the less i very much appreciate your time spent on my project . thank you JHB

Thank you very much for your effort on this Project JHB . Its very usefull what you did. I guess i could use some enlightenment if you have some to offer jhb . I dont fully understand why the program requires Infraview to operate . I am concerned in the multiple steps if any that are necessary to load a simple pic into this image manipulating access form . If its easy then im good . In a perfect world i could load any picture into the form then manipulate it . Being i am so green on this subject . Do you have some input on why that's not possible or is it ? Again all your effort is appreciated and useful . I just could use some educated advice . Than you Eric maxfield

I don't no either, maybe because Infraview have the functions your application use.
I don't know the application and I've no use for it. I thought you did know it because you wrote in post #1.
