Showing Photos In An MS Access Form

Aug 5, 2004

Access 2003, Win XP Pro

I have tried to find information on how to do this but everything I try fails.

I have a form on which I want to display JPG photos which are stored in a folder called FCP. The path to each photo is stored in the database table. Each record will have one photo only and the path looks something like this:

C:Documents and SettingsBKALProjectLRFCP4.jpg

Can someone tell me exactly how to design a form picture field that will display the relevant photo?

Thanks!

How To Link Photos To Each Record And Display In Report (Access 2010)

Feb 1, 2013

How can I link multiple images from a folder on my drive to each record without making the database file huge?

Each record is a plant species. I want to link to photos of flower, seed, etc. See attached database example.

I would then like those images to appear on a report for each species. How would I go about doing this, if it is indeed possible?

General :: Adding Photos To A Form?

May 6, 2013

I have created a profiling database for my school. Each student can access their own form via the school's admission number - which I use as the primary key for most of the tables on the form. One section of the form shows a photo of the student. I take this photo from the school's SIMS photo file which had all the children's photos. Each photo in the file uses the school's admission number as its filename (for example 000358.jpg ).

I want to update the photos in my table by using a macro or piece of CBA code. Unfortunately, I don't know how to do this. When I set the database up I did each photo one at a time, so it took several hours.

General :: Adding Photos To Data Sheet From Within The Form

Oct 17, 2012

I have created a DB to store my students records, eg: Student Number, English Name, Chinese Name, Birthdate, Class Number, Age, and exam scores, I also have a photo frame to display the students photo.

In the data sheet I have an ole object field where I add the photos, the thing is it means I need to manually add this to the data sheet, whereas I can add all the other details directly from the form "Add New Record" and also search, delete or edit all from the form.

I have searched and searched but I cannot find any info that accurately explains how I may add the photos to the c where I have placed a button "Add Photo". I assume I need to create a macro and assign it to the button (on click) then this would need to open a search file location box where I can find the photo and select it to be added to the file.

The point is I wish to be able to do all the adding, deleting and editing from within the form and not have to enter into the data sheet at all.

I am using Office 2010

Forms :: Access Sub Form Not Showing All Data From Table

Jan 14, 2014

I am relatively new to Access 2007, I am having an issue with a sub form not showing all the data from a table.

Basically I have 2 tables: Headers and Line Details, they are linked via an order number. The headers will only ever have 1 record per order number but there can be multiple records on the line details table.

I have imported the data into both tables. When I open my main form, all the data from the header file is all visable and all correct for all records. However when I look at the data in the sub form, it is only showing data for some of the records.

I have checked and the data is correctly linked, and if I change the "source object" to point directly at the table in the sub form it shows the record is there. When I point it back to my sub form it is blank.

Pictures/PHotos In MS Acces

Jun 25, 2007

I'm not brilliant at using MS Access - can't use the VBA codes or anything like that.

basically, I want to set up a database of photogrpahs where you store thephotograph in Access, and then run a query to search for specific photos, which brings up a form showing the picture.

I seem to be OK at doing all of this so far except I can't get the photo to appear in the form - it just displays a link which you double click on to get to the photo.

I've tried to look up how to sort this on the web but don't understand the way people speak about access :confused:

can anyone help???

Including Photos In Database

Mar 4, 2008

I've got a database that tracks name/address/phone, etc for a large group of people. I've recently added the ability to include a person's photo on the forms and reports. I've done that by saving the photos with the naming convention of [firstname]_[lastname].jpg and then using VBA, the database checks to see if there is a file with the corresponding name of the record and displays the picture if so.

It works very well, but I can see where I would have some problems in the future. For example, if someone gets married and changes their name, the corresponding photo must also be renamed to display properly. And if there are any misspellings, that becomes a problem. Also, if James decides he wants to go by Jim, the photo would not be displayed, either.

I'm wondering if anyone has any other ideas on how I might accomplish my goal. I know I could name the photo based on the record ID, but that's not a good option, since I'll be handling the photos, while someone else will be inputting the contact details. So I won't know the recordID easily.

Is there some way to have another field in each record that points to the corresponding photo? Then if James goes by Jim, his first name can be changed, but the corresponding picture name could remain the same.

Is there some great idea that I'm missing that would make this process much simpler and scalable? Or do I just have to deal with the maintenance issues?

Thanks.

Embedding Loads Of Photos

Jan 26, 2007

I am wondering if it is possible to embed all of the photos that I have into my photo table automatically. I have the table set up with all of the data that needs to be there but I have over 1500 photos that need to be embedded and wanted to save myself some time and automate the process somehow. I already know that embedding these photos is going to make my database huge but that isn't an issue for this particular project.

As far as I can tell from this forum, the help and the Northwind database this isn't possible without manually going through every photo but I am pretty new to Access so thought I would throw the question out there.

Thanks

Access 2013 - Hiding And Showing Access Window

Apr 6, 2015

I am trying to Hide or Show the Access Window by using two buttons on a Form. Running Access 2013 in Windows 7 64bit.

I have used code from the Internet as below but added the PtrSafe item to the Function Declaration as below:-

Option Compare Database
'Hide Access desktop screen and float Forms on pc desktop
Private Declare PtrSafe Function IsWindowVisible Lib "user32" (ByVal hwnd As Long) As Long

Dim dwReturn As Long
Const SW_HIDE = 0

[Code] ....

I then have two buttons on a form coded as below:-

Option Compare Database
Private Sub cmd_Hide_dbw_Click()
Call fSetAccessWindow("Minimize", False, False)
DoCmd.OpenForm "frm_Test", acNormal
End Sub

[Code] .....

I have attached a Test Database which demonstrates the problem I am experiencing.

Do the following sequence...............

Open the Test Database. DO NOT ENABLE CONTENT
The Access 'Ribbon'Test_Database.accdb is active and usable
Open frm_Test in Design View in order to inspect, all should be as shown above.
Now click the Enable Content warning
Switch frm_Test to Form View

Click button Hide dbw. Closes the Access Window
Click button Show dbw. Opens the Access Window...HOWEVER....

Attachment 20252The Access Ribbon is locked and usable !!!

I cannot find a way to re-activate the Ribbon

Showing JPGs In Access 2002

Aug 5, 2006

Hi,
I'm having problems with showing jpg files in access 2002.

I have a database which holds the path name for photos, based upon the stock item name. When I press a show image button I want to see the image. This is a programme I made using access and vba about a year ago and it has worked fine. However I have recently had to reinstall access and since then the programme isn't working. could anyone tell me why I am unable to see these images in my database anymore. I have checked the path etc and it is all set up correctly, so I don't know why it won't show.

I get the error that the file size may be too big or try converting to gif or bmp. However I have seen the same pictures in my database previously so I know they are not too big.

I have hundreds of images, so I don't want to convert them all to gifs or bmps if possible, I am reguarly adding to them too so this would be a real hastle.

Any help on how to restore the images to showing would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you in advance

Steve Atkin.

Data Access Page Not Showing All Records

Oct 7, 2005

HI THERE.

IVE GOT A QUICK QUESTION ABOUT DATA ACCESS PAGES AND THE DATA THAT IS SHOWN. IVE CREATED A DATABASE THAT HAS AROUND 25,000 RECORDS OF LANDUSE PROPERTIES AND HAVE CREATED A DATA ACCESS PAGE TO VIEW THESE RECORDS. THE PROBLEM IM HAVING IS THAT WHEN I LOAD THE FORM ONLY 1000 RECORDS SHOW OUT OF THE 25,000 THAT I HAVE IN MY DATABASE.
ARE THERE ANY SETTINGS THAT ALLOW YOU TO CHANGE HOW MANY RECORDS CAN BE SHOWN? IS THIS ONE OF THE SHORT FALLS OF DATA ACCESS PAGES? :confused:
ANY COMMENTS MUCH APPRECIATED.

Modules & VBA :: Showing In Access If Email In Outlook Has Attachment

Oct 15, 2014

I found a code that will go trough an emailbox and export all emails to a table in access. This part is working OK (except the received date). I also wante to show in the table if the email contains an attachment, but that part is not working at all. The project actually is meant to store the emails on a shared drive and attachments and have the emails in Access so I can see them all and recall the one needed.

Code:
Private Sub Command14_Click()
Dim TempRst As DAO.Recordset
Dim rst As DAO.Recordset

[Code].....

Some Fields Intermittently Not Showing Data In Access 2013

Feb 12, 2014

I've recently moved up to Access 2013 (from Access 2010) and everything went well, until one day my splash screen was blank and the program had empty fields...after seeing that all the links to the BE were OK, I re-booted and everything worked fine....until the next day the same thing happened...... The program randomly falls over about once or twice a week and I have to re-boot to cure it.....

My splash screen has a standard dlookup ( [=DLookUp("Banner","tblCompanyInfo")] ) to display the active company name...and sometimes its populated and other times its not..... if its not populated then loads of other fields on the forms are also blank - even if they point to valid data in the database!!!!!!

Win7 (both 32 and 64bit) with Access 2013 32bit on three PC's - same problem on all!!!!
