I have an employee data base which is updated as employees sign on for work.
We employ about 600 employees over a busy 10 week period so we need to be
ablt to process information pretty quickly. I would like to be able to use a
digital camera and drop the new employees image directly into the data base
without a great deal of 'computer prowess' on behalf of the person inputting
the employee data.

Any suggestions on the best way of going about this.

Set the datatype for the field to Ole Data, place a bound object frame on
the form, set the control source property to the Ole Data field.
Once this is dome you can paste bitmap images into the Bound Object Frame
and it will store in the database. On thing to watch for is.... bitmaps use
a lot of memory and will cause your database to enlarge greatly.
