paste/insert pictures in a certain post.

There are several ways to do this. Of them is to add a field to each record
containing the path and filename where the image file is stored on your hard
disk. It could be "C:\directory\subdirectory\MyGlamorShot.Gif". Name each
image file and save it in the same folder. Create a form to display the
data and add an image control. In the image control properties specify the
table and field containing the image path and filename. This will allow you
to store many images outside of the Access MDB itself, and it will be easy
to manage the images using Windows Explorer. As you change records the
pictures will change. The image control can be set to scale images to fit
the control.
