Picture Not Displaying In Form

[Todd]

I have a bound frame and inserted a jpg but just the file
name appears. The table lists the data in the picture
field as a Package. How can I get the picture to show oon
forms and reports.

I have experienced the same problem and it appears to be

a new security issue when using Microsoft's Windows
Picture and Fax Viewer. This software apparently has
replaced an older version which isn't concerned about
viruses. But the problem is - the files I want to link
to my data base are simply from my own digital camera.
And yet, the software interprets these jpegs as possibly
corrupt and insists on a warning which can't be put
away. So every time a new page pops up in access forms I
don't see the image but only the name of the jpeg I have
linked to the box. This is very frustrating. I need
immediate access to these images so they can be quickly
previewed.
