Modules & VBA :: Changing Image Path - Set Picture Property Of Image
Dec 4, 2014
I have a form that I would like to update a picture on using VBA. The source of the picture path is in part a query that is not bound to the form. So far I have the following code that is pretty much working, but with a couple flaws.
Code:
Private Sub Form_Current()
LoadDefaultPicture
End Sub
Sub LoadDefaultPicture()
Dim db As DAO.Database
[Code] ....
This is working. However, when I change the record the picture flashes the current picture once and then loads the new picture. It is like it reloads the current picture then loads the new one. I'm hoping there is a way to get rid of the flash.
Also, the code fails here:
strDefaultPictureName = rs.Fields("AttachmentName")
When the query does not return a record. I can definitely fix this by adding an if statement to check for a record, but I'm kind of perplexed at why it is failing at that line. I would expect it to assign an empty string to that variable name and then fail on the next command where I try and set the ".Picture" property of the image.

My student is doing a project on question paper generation in which he selects questions from each lesson needed and also some of these questions have images associated with them. So, if these questions are selected, the image control in the report displays it.
If there is no image, the space for the control is left in tact. I tried changing the visible property for the image control in the Detail_Format event procedure. But this code is not reached at all and the space is still left. I am not storing the image directly in the field but its path in a text field.
I want that the space occupied by the image control removed. I tried the suppression thing but obviously it did not work.

I have a piece of code that I'm using to display an image on a report based on a path saved to each record. the code is:
Code:
Option Compare Database
Private Sub Detail_Format(Cancel As Integer, FormatCount As Integer)
If IsNull(Me.ImagePath) Then
Me.ImgPic.Picture = "O:BellinghamIntranetProductionLabelsNo Label.bmp"
Else
Me.ImgPic.Picture = Me.ImagePath
End If
End Sub
It seems like every few months the code crashes access and then never works again. When I debug, the part that is highlighted is:
Code:
Me.ImgPic.Picture = Me.ImagePath
The only way i've found to correct it is to delete the report and the module and copy them back in from a backup database. What could be causing this code to crash or how to stabalize my database to prevent this from happening again.

I am trying to link an images (.png) onto a form. I have a folder of all the images I want but I want the path to be relative. So that if I move the access file and the images folder to a new location, it will still work.
In the properties for the image, It works fine as C:UsersjohnDesktopimage1.png but what I am looking for is the ability to use "imagesimage1.png" as the file will always be in that relative folder to the db.
What is the correct syntax for this? putting image1.png in the same directory and just using image1.png works, but this won't be very tidy with 100+ images.
I have tried:
imagesimage1.png
imagesimage1.png
imagesimage1.png
With PictureType set as linked.
I know from searching it is possible through VBA by getting the root directory of the folder and appending the filename. Don't really want to go this root. I also don't particularly want to create a table to store the images or links.

Hello. I've searched and read a few threads concerning image controls on forms and haven't been able to find a solution to my problem (yet). Anyway, I have a form with two image controls (imgOK1 & imgOK2). The previous and current setting of the "Picture" property for both images is set to "C:MOMGraphicsfilename.bmp". The location of my images has changed and will change for each user which is "C:Documents and Settingsuser.nameMOMGraphicsfilename.bmp". I'm using the following code to set the .Picture property on form load:
Dim ImgPath
ImgPath = "C:Documents and Settings" & Environ("username") & "My DocumentsMOMGraphics"
Me.imgOK1.Picture = ImgPath & "imgButton-OK1_25%.bmp"
Me.imgOK2.Picture = ImgPath & "imgButton-OK2_25%.bmp"
When the form is opened, an error stating that the image located at "C:MOMGraphicsfilename.bmp" cannot be found; once for each image control. Then the form loads and .Picture properties appear to be set correctly as they are displayed fine. I've tried to clear the .Picture properties for both image controls using the properties editor but the original path returns as soon as the property loses focus. Is there a way to programatically set this property and make it stick so the errors are not displayed?

I'm using GHudson's A Better Mouse Trap code. It works great. However, I added other code from http://www.databasedev.co.uk/image-form.html to get and save the path to image files and now I think there is a conflict between the sets of code.
The Images tab on the form frm_CreateNewSpec is where I have problems. The error messages are definitely from Mouse Trap...I just don't know how to resolve the problem.
I've probably missed something simple, but don't know what.
Any and all assistance is greatly appreciated by this novice.

I have a form which uses a query for entry to the table. One of the fields in the query is a calculated field which shows in the form. The calculated field returns a number from 1 to 5. Rather than showing this number I would like to show a round stoplight that changes color for each number. I have inserted a OLE object OLEunbound235 into the form. The colors I want to use are
icolor = RGB(255, 204, 0) 'Gold
icolor = RGB(192, 192, 192) 'Silver
icolor = RGB(216, 129, 0) 'Bronze
icolor = RGB(255, 255, 0) 'Yellow
icolor = RGB(255, 0, 0) 'Red
and icolor = RGB(255, 255, 255) 'White for any other value.
The text box that returns the calculated number is labeled Text1 and I have hidden this box so it can not be seen. Does anyone know how to write this code that would change the OLE object color automatically so when the user enters data into the form and the return number changes the color of the OLE object changes. I know very little about VBA and I am not sure where to begin or where to even write the code.
:confused:

I have a database used for several product lines. Depending on the product line selected, I need to add an image to my report as the header for it. I need to store the images (there are only 3) in the database and cannot have an external link to them. Have been trying to figure out the best way to do this and I am finding both OLE Objects and Image Objects.

My Db has 1 table with 4 columns named ID, First_name, Last_name and Photo.
ID is a counter and primary key.
First+last names are text fields.
Photo is an Ole object.
I display everything in a form that is controlled by a combo box. The combo box displays the first name and when I chage the first name with this box the last name changes too. I use this code together with the event "after update"
Code:Private Sub Combo_First_name_AfterUpdate()Me.txt_last_name.Value = Me.Combo_first_name.Column(2)
Everything works perfectly fine (txt_last_name changes according to the first name in the combo box), except that the photo of the person doesn't change. Nothing happens to the photo when changing value in the combo box or it just displays a message box with an error messages when I have tried to get it to work.
I want the ole object picture to change too, when changing the first name in the combo box.
I hope you can help me out here.

On open I change the Picture property of an image control to another image. I do it 2 places. Access crashes on the first change or on the second. In about 50 % of the cases.

Hi guys,
I'm in desperate need of help and want to know if it is possible to load an image on a form once a hyper link is created.
For example, I have a form with a hyper link to an image created, currently, when you click on the hyperlink, it opens the picture in the browser, can you change it so that it loads teh image embedded into the form instead of loading it into a browser?
If so, how?
Thanks

I have a global function which I have hooked onto the onClick event of controls. Currently I am using commandButtons as my control of choice. In my function I can then reference Forms.ActiveControl which is no problem.
However, for lots of reasons I really need to use Image controls. Now, my problem. Image Controls have an Onclick Event, but they do not get focus so the Forms.ActiveControl will not work.
How can I identify the image control that has generated the click event if the control itself does not get focus and so cannot be referenced by ActiveControl? Working on a possibly work around, but could do with the best brains in Access on the case!

How do i actually store and display my image in a form which works when i click on a item in the listbox and it will display the image i want.Currently i'm using a unbound form with listbox and rowsource from Queries.When i click on the listbox it gave me
"you referred to a property by a numeric argument that's isn't one of the property numbers in this collection."
This is the code i tested
Quote:
Private Sub List6_Click()
If Me.List6.ItemsSelected.Item(3) = "DF" Then
Me.Image32.Visible = True
End If
End Sub
the (3) is referred to the 3rd column of the listbox right? is it because the rowsource is from a query that's why i have that error or because the query contains multiple different tables?
is there any simple way to insert image into access and it will appear in just 1 image box ? and depending on which item i click on the listbox the image will change?

We need to replicate an Access report we have in Microsoft Word. The report has a fixed, small image in the header and so we embedded it in the report (it is not in an external file). To put this image in the Word document the only way we have come up with is shown in the code below.
Code:
Dim apWord As Word.Application
Dim doc As Word.Document
Set apWord = CreateObject("Word.application")
doc.Shapes.AddPicture "G:ImagesSinful Banner.bmp", False, True, 0, 0, 540, 42
Which requires an external image file. We really would like to avoid this. We could make a template Word document, but that too would be an external file. We know how to put this image in a table as an OLE object, but can't find any way to get it from the table into the Word document.

I have a module like this:
Code:
Public Function DisplayImage(ctlBrowserControl As Control, _
strImagePath As Variant)
On Error GoTo Err_DisplayImage
Dim strDatabasePath As String
Dim intSlashLocation As Integer
[code]...
This works perfectly to display the image I'd like through WebBrowser control I put onto the form....HOWEVER --and here's my question--the image size is not bound to the size bounds of the control size itself.So if my control is 2 inches by 2 inches and the image is 16 inches by 16 inches, then the image doesn't fully show within the control.
I'd like to get the control to show the whole image (sized down as appropiate, or sized up as appropriate) such that the whole image is contained within the control.I know how to limit the display of any image in HTML.

I am new to VBA for access. I am working on a form as a user interface. I have added an picture to the form and it will change, according to the selection in the combobox. It looks small, and not clear because of the size, and each image has different size. I would like to know if there is a VBA code that will allow me to click on it, and then it will open in another window so it is bigger with the right sizes.

I would like to place an image file located at e.g. "C:MyImagesimage.png" into the clipboard. I have not been able to figure out how to do this. I have been able to place Text into the Clipboard using the DataObject late binding sub below.
Code:
Public Sub PutInClipBoard(strString As String)
Const DATAOBJECT_BINDING As String = "new:{1C3B4210-F441-11CE-B9EA-00AA006B1A69}"
With CreateObject(DATAOBJECT_BINDING)
.SetText strString
.PutInClipBoard
End With

If I use the word template named "ABC.dot" as attached and write the following piece of code to print off the letters with different appropriate background , it works perfectly fine:
Code:
Sub PrintLetters()
Application.DisplayAlerts = False
Dim cn As ADODB.Connection
Dim rs As ADODB.Recordset
Dim r As Long
Set cn = New ADODB.Connection
[Code] ....
But if I combine two templates together in one template as attached "Capita.dot" then it doesn't display background picture at all in any of the cases. I am using the same piece of code but the background image is not displaying. The background image shows logos for each letter like For capita letters , the logo will be capita . For Friends Life letters the logo background will be different.
