I was wondering if any could help me with a project I am doing.
What I am trying to do is build an access database to record all the information and digital photos for a kids ID program for our local school. The problem I am having is getting the form that I have designed to display a gif or a jpg file. I can get it to display a bmp file with no problem. I understand that I have to have a graphics filter installed to get it to display these file types. I checked and these filters are supposed to be installed. Any suggestions? So how do I display a jpg or gif on a form?
I would also like design the form to display a thumbnail of the picture on the form and when it is double clicked it would bring up the picture in another form at its original size and have the ability to print the picture from this second form. The second form wont be a problem but the thumbnail of the pic on the first form is giving me problems. Any help or suggestions anyone would have for this project would be appreciated.
