Hi
Hope I am posting to the right forum, please excuse if I am wrong.
I am a newbie to programing of any type. I am trying to create a facility in a MS database which, based on a comand butont will open a dialog box to enable the user to browse to a location of a file. Having found the file the pathname is retrieved and put into a record field in an access database table. Specifically the file the path will be directed to will be an image file and will be bound to each record, i.e changes for every record.
I can call the commondialog control, and I can handle the image display in the form. I just need to know how to make the join and get the path into the table. I know I can do this manually by typing in each path for each record on the table, but i want to handle this with a simpler point and click methodology.
Any suggestions would be very greatfully recieved.
Thanx
Adrian
