I've google searched and trolled newsgroups but I have been unable to find
information on how to print one or more pictures on a report from a
hyperlink stored in a table. Using Access 97. Please Help.

(If not possible using hyperlink, is there another solution?)

I've attempted this solution and I'm getting RunTime Error 13 "Data type
mismatch". I've tried with *.bmp & *.jpg file and Tried Using the Hyperlink
field and tried using the same path but stored as text.

This is frustrating.......
 
Mike:

1.) You can't use a hyperlink field. Its format is not correct for an image
control.

2.) You have to use a plain text field with a standard windows directory
path, it can't be an internet URL, the image control doesn't support these
so

The code must be something like:

Me.ImageControlName.Picture = \\yourserver\drive\folder\image.jpg or

Me.ImageControlName.Picture = "drive:\folder\image.jpg"

HTH
