Forms :: Database Images Into Form?
Jun 10, 2013
how to display images from a database in the form. The form looks approximately like Customerdetail from Northwind Access example database. Images in database I have stored as OLE object images. But how to link images with the form? Is it enough to give in properties control element source images column name? It seems like it is not.

Am trying to display images on a form in a split database. I add the attachment field to the associated form's table and add the attachment control to the form but cannot get the image(s) to display on the form (the control remains blank). I can add the image(s) in table view (and display them) but double clicking on the form control also does nothing.
I think I must be doing at least the basics correctly as if I try the same thing to an earlier, non-split version of the database, all works as expected.Are there additional steps required to do this thing in a split database?

How would you tie tiff images to an access database. for example. if I have a tiff image of an invoice, i would want the customer to be able to search for an invoice using information about the image, like invoice #, cutomer #, purchase price, etc.

I can not make the link thing work, and now I cannot even make it work with the images being stored in the database. My DB is very simple, and I am attaching it, along with my Images folder and a couple images. If ANYONE can figure out my problem and suggest how to fix it I would greatly appreciate it!
Thank You,
Bill

Hello
First let me apologize if I am being stupid, quite new to Access. I am trying to create a database with some pictures in it; I want to design a form that changes the image with each record, (Its for work they want a database of our employees info with a photo of each employee) reading though the help file it seams I need to add a bound image control, I have tried 2 different ways and am still getting the same problem, the first way I tried was to create a text field with the address off the photos (there are .jpg’s) and then add a bound image control on the form and link it to the field. Problem is this just displays the name of the file not the picture (e.g. as you go though the records it shows Mark.jpg, Simon,jpg, Louise.jpg….) I then tried to add a OLE field and add the files that way, if I click on add from file when creating the object I get the same problem just displays the file name, If I click create new bitmap image it works and displays the picture, the problem is the data base file then becomes huge (it was 45 meg with 2 photos, I need to add about 150 in total!. Am I being totaly dumb, is there a way of getting Access to display Jpg’s and ideally have them linked to instead of embedded to keep the size of the database down.
Sorry for rambling! (oh yeh and I am using Access 2003)
Thanks in advance!
Matt

I produce visualisations for architecture companies and use a lot of 2d images of people, cars, trees, skies, etc. As it stands now, I have a folder that contains a huge amount of images that I flip through when I create a new image. I have seen that some websites, such as [URL] .... allow you to filter through an image database based on different tags.
I would like to create a similar database, but stored locally on my computer. I have actually never used Microsoft Access before, but I'm thinking that this might be the best program for me to use. Is this true?
Essentially I would like to organize my library of images of 2D people based on things like: 'staring', 'bicycle', 'looking up', 'back view', 'crowds', 'pointing', 'sitting' etc.

I am working on a computer task for school and i want to add a field to a database that displays pictures of different kinds of fish. I've been searching for a solution on the internet the whole morning, but i cant seem to get it right. Some sights recommend inserting an OLE object, while others say i should insert the paths in a textfield. The second option sounded the best, but how do i insert the path and how do i get the database to display the pictures? I know the images should be saved in the same file in the database. Can I only insert bitmap images or is it possible to use jpeg?

I was curious if there is a way to embed images into a database, so that if I emailed it to someone, the images would still be able to open. I tried using a table and adding attachments, but that doesn't seem to work very well.

I have a report in Access 2010. The report contains some images in the main report area and in sub reports. I have The queries that feed the report and subreport contains the name of the pictures that are loaded into its image controls. I added the following code to my form in order to control what image is displayed for each record. Id like the form to work even if the database is moved as long as the subfolder and photos are moved along with it (thus using relative path).
Code:
Private Sub Report_(Current)
Dim ImagePath As String
Dim ImagePathInt As String
Dim ImagePathPlanV As String
[code]...
The problem seems to be that the routine doesn't seem to initially recognize the path. I have a blank photo in the folder containing all the images called NO PHOTO.jpg. If I open the report in design view and browse to this image in the picture parameter of any one of the image controls and run the report, then everything works perfectly even if I close and reopen the report. The report shows the right pictures even in the subreports.
The problem is when I close the database and reopen it, then the link is lost again, forcing me to do the process of browsing for the NO PHOTO image again. I already try to do an open form procedure to automatically reset the picture property, but although it resets the picture to the picture I set (I verify this by setting a different picture instead of the NO PHOTO) it does not make things work correctly as it does when I manually browse for it in design view. I also try to run the code above under the Report (Open) instead of the Report (Current) but that didn't work either.

Many years ago I created a database that has one embedded image for each project.
I am now redoing this db in 2010 format and I want to extract these images and save them in a folder so I can link them to the new db based on the project ID number
The table is [Project main], the unique project ID is [R&D ID#] and the image file is stored in [Item image] as an OLE object. i would like to save them to C:db images

Hi
I would like to be able to create a continous form that different type of inage depending on values set in a given field. I have found that if I put an image field in my table and use this idea it works ok. The problem I am getting is to change the image based on the value in the given field. To make this easier to expalin. record one is a yes or no value record two is an image value that could be image one or image 2. I tried storing the images in a seperate table. Could someone help with making this work with vb code.
Thanks Paul

Hi all...
Does it make a big differance in the size of your database if you have all the images in the forms and reports linked instead of embedded? I have about 15 reports all with graphics and and about 7 forms with graphics also... Just wondering if it would make a big difference if after I split the database and create a folder with the current graphics and just link them all.. Or would that be a waste of time...?
Thanks

I have an INVENTORY database for work that I created. It got up to about 1 GB in file size and it stopped letting me add images (about 5000 so far; 10000 more need to be added). I was loading them (attachments) directly into the database. Obviously that was the wrong thing to do.
So I went back into the database to delete the images / attachments columns in my tables as well as change my many forms and tons of reports to reflect the table's text field for the link on my hard drive to each image (using the control source via property sheet to view each image in both forms and reports). After about 800 links, the images do show up on the forms okay, but now only sporadically show up in reports; in any view mode and with printing. This is very frustrating.
Is this a MS glitch? A memory issue? How can this be fixed? I really do not want to break my database into many smaller databases; it's just not not logical.Image type makes no difference whether it shows up or not; 99% jpg though.
PS - the other downfall I seem to be having is that the image quality = very poor viewing on screen and very bad printing; though when I used the attachments for the images = crystal clear viewing and printing.

Having trouble using .JPG images in Access 2013 reports? I inserted some images (of arrows) onto a label report. Since then, I've had problems with my DB becoming corrupted or "unstable". I can give more detail if wanted, but my main question is do y'all recommend using images in reports and forms. If so, what format?

Could anyone help please.
I am a total novice with MS Access (2002) and coding so I am trying to learn by adapting the Northwind sample.
So far, one thing has completely stumped me and that is controlling images. I understand the benefits/pitfalls of storing images in the database and have concluded that it will suit me better to link my images via a text field.
What I am trying to do is add multiple images to the Northwind Employee Form. I have followed the help file and I can get additional images to display on the form, but I can not get the additional images to change for each record. The MS Access help only covers having a single image per record. I've concluded (right or wrong) that the Event Procedure is where I need to be experimenting, but I've had no luck so far.
Can anyone tell me if I can modify the Event Procedure in the Northwinds Employee sample to cope with multiple images, or is there another way?
Excuse me if any of my terminology is wrong... I really am new to this.
Thanks for any advice.

Hi All
I have been looking at other thread but i havent found anything that is similar to my situation.
I have a stock table of products and i want to display an image of each product based on one that is selected at that time. All the images are in one set folder. I need to find the image based on the product code and adding the extension ".jpg" which i have done. I do not have a path and image name field as i am using a table imported from ODBC. However not all the images are present so i need the database to show the image if it exsists and show a "no image" if it doesn't
Is this possible and how would i go about it
Any help would be appreciated
Thanks
Martin

I have several text boxes which I can populate using the DLookup.I have images I want to display for individual records.I use a search (textbox) to input client name and this populates all other textboxes. I am trying to get the relevant image to display also using this search box. I have also disabled record selectors just tidy up the form. I have tried coding the image control on the AfterUpdate event of the search box. Full path to images are stored as JPG in my ClientTable not as OLE.

Hi,
I have a form in my database that has two subforms, both of which I use to display images that are linked. This works great when I just flip though the records in Form view, but when I want to print off a certain page the images are not linked properly. Instead of showing the image associated with the unique record it previews/prints the images associated with the first record of my recordset.
Any ideas? Maybe there is something in the subform or form properties that I don't have set correctly. In a past visit to the forum I found an extremely helpful database posted (called ImageSample97) that I used to develop my form.
Thank you,
~Amaze

I have photos stored in a folder on a drive. I have referenced them before in a simple picture viewer I created in a form. I create the file name by referencing the values of a list box on the field.
Example:
The list box has piid.2005.001 and image name is 2
filename = C:Temp" & pidd & "" & piid & "_" & imageName & ".jpg"
C:Temppiid.2005.001piid.2005.001_2.jpg
Each piid has it's own set of photos in their own folder
Now. I want to be able to print out all the files in a report/form. The piid and image name are stored in a table called tblPhotos so I could reference there.
I want to have a button I click that generates a report/form that spits out all the photos in that folder. Next to a button would be a text box (txtWhichPiid) where you enter in the piid and that's how you know which piid's photos to use.
