OLE Problems

[SteveShelton]

I know I have read a great deal about pictures in Access and the problems associated with trying to view them, but I want the picture to display on the form. My problem is the pictures display but they are pixelated and the name of the picture is shown. Also some of the pictures are dib or bitmap pictures created in paint show as PACKAGE in the table.

Any help

You may want to look at this Attachment which demonstrates how to store and retrieve images as Binary Long Objects. The original concept and most of the code is from Alan Warren. I made some code additions and modifications, as well as designed a more appealing GUI. I must warn you that it is not for the faint of heart!
