Help,

I'm trying to construct a database to store my digital
pictures (3 megapixal). I have built the table to store
all information, including the pictures. I want to embed
the pictures in the database. When I open the form, I am
able to store the picture with associated (i.e. date
picture was taken, keywords), but the picture does not
show up, just a link. I have choosen for data in that
field to be embedded. I assume that the reason the
picture isn't shown in the form is due to the high
resolution of the picture. Is there a way I can have the
picture shown in the form?

Thanks for the help!!

probably using a file format that cannot display in place. Try something
basic like a .BMP as in the Employees example in Northwind. Unless the image
+ record is > 2Gb the size is not the problem.
