Hello,

I have a database with two command buttons. One is to send an email from the
database and the other is to preview a graph chart.

My problem is this:

I have a picture on the button instead of text to represent what it is. On
my computer it works fine. But on someone elses computer it shows text and no
picture. Is it possible to make it where if someone else goes into the
database the pictures will show on there buttons as well automatically?

Thanks!!
 
Hi,

Is the Picture Type property set to Embedded or Linked? If linked, you
will need to provide the image file also, and make sure the Picture property
points to it. Probably better to use an Embedded one, unless you are using
lots or them or they are large.

Hope this helps,

Hi Clifford,

Thank you for your response. The picture type is Linked. I will try the
Embedded way and see how that works.

Thanks!!!!
 
It worked great Clifford thank you!!!

I read on some website it said to use the linked versus embedded. I
veryified with other users and they can open it with the pictures as well. I
apprecaite your help.

Have a great weekend!!!
 
Hi,

Glad to hear it! There are good and bad reasons to use linked images
and good and bad reasons to use embedded images. It just depends on the
situation.

You are welcome and a good weekend to you too!
