I want to insert images that change in each register in a
access data page. I could do it easily in forms, but is being
dificult in the access data page.
My doubt is about the UNC way? How to write it?
The Help files say to make a text field and insert the UNC
way to images. My images are in a folder IMAGES in MY
DOCUMENTS in C. What I have to write in the field?
And in what field?? After creating a text field in the
structure mode, what I have to do?
Thanks!
 
Its telling you to you only need to store the path to the image not the
image itself. So in your text field you would store
C:\myfolderwithimages\myimage.jpg. Now in the report or whatever load the
image from the path stored in the database.
 
If you mean in Data Access Pages, the web-hosted form of an Access
application, someone else will have to answer. But if you just mean "how do
I handle images in Access", then you can download the sample databases from
http://accdevel.tripod.com. The ZIP file includes an article on the three
approaches and considerations in choosing one, a text file describing the
samples, and some sample public-domain .jpg images for testing.
