I am using code to insert a picture into an image box in
a form. When the code runs, the screen flashes a message
"Inserting..." along with the name of the picture file
that is being inserted. The message is not modal, it is
not an error message or warning. It requires no user
response, however it provides the user with an option to
cancel. The message automatically vanishes after the
loading is complete. Since the picture file is small,
the message simply flashes on the screen so fast that it
is hard to tell what it is saying. The flash however is
disturbing to the user. DoCmd.setWarnings False does not
effect this particular message.

My question, how do I prevent the message from showing?
 
That's interesting. I think this is exactly the same
thing that I am doing but I get the message. By standard
image control I assume you mean the one from the Access
toolbox, that's the one I am using. I am working with
Access 2003. I too set the picture property in the
onCurrent event. I wonder what is going on??
-----Original Message-----
For my dynamic images, I use a standard image control
Click to expand...
and simply set the .Picture property to the path and
filename of my graphic in the OnCurrent() event of the
form. I don't get any messages informing me that
it's "Inserting..." anything when I do it that way.
