Auto Insert Photo
Feb 28, 2005
I have written a form from a table which holds employees details. This table has a photo field. The form has a control which displays the employee’s photo. It uses the field, photo as the control source.
This works okay but if you wish to enter a photo from the form you have to click on insert. Browse for the file etc.
The Sample database “Northwind” on the access help has a similar form, but under the photograph there are command buttons to add/change or remove the photo which is obviously a much more professional way of doing it.
I have looked at the properties of these control buttons and they seem to work through a visual basic program. As someone who has a very limited knowledge of VB is there a simpler way of doing this or would I be able to cut and paste the code to work on my form somehow (If Legal)
Any advice would be greatly appreciated.

Hi all!
I was wondering if you guys can help me out with this one:
I would like to have data auto-inserted from a particular colum in table 'x' in to a defined column in table 'y'. similary, I'd like to achieve auto-updation of this data as well as deletion. Can anyone please provide some guidelines?
A little more detail :
I have a column "Client ID" in the table client_personal_info, the rows of which I'd like to have updated in the "Client ID" column in the client_business_detail table.
So if say, ClientID_1 is a row that has been added by the user, I'd like to have it auto-inserted in the client ID column in the client_business_detail table
thanks in advance for your help

I want wage rate should be inserted automatically instead of manually in attendance sheet. In labourwage form, wage rate will be fixed for labour type with wagedate as and when required. Once I add attendate in attendform, it should look-up the table labourwage and auto insert wage rate entry in to wagerate column for the respective month ie from the given wage date up to next given wage date of labourwage. I have tried much, but not succeeded and presently entering manually which is time wasting. This should be possible with writing some code with VB.

Someone once posted an database on how to do this but I was not able to see how they were able to automatically input the data into a text field.
I know how to do a combo box to query and input those results into a combo box but I am confused how they got the information from the combo box selection to automatically put the other variables into the testbox. They did this without using the dlookup command. In fact it was done without any code.
They showed how to do this automatically without code and with two other methods (one being dlookup). Can someone please help me if it is clearcut as I don't have too much time to search the forums for empty answers (believe me I have already wasted too much time) Thank You

On my form have a status field with about 7 options to choose from a combo box, i have these values set in another table. What i would like is for my other field, which is a date, to automatically change whenever the status field is changed. So i know how long ago the status field was set. So basically if i change the status to complete i want the date to then set the date and time now.

Hi everybody,
Recently I created a database for staff details in my company and I used OLE Object in Data type to make it. The problem now there are more than 500 employees in the company so it is very difficult to scan one by one photo. Is there any way that once I click on command button photo will be detected from scanner and saved directly in the field instead of doing it manually.
Thanks and regards

In the tables, i have made the field OLE object. When i try to add the foto (about 97kb) jpg format, all it does is add a picture of the jpg icon on my field. If i double click on the icon my foto will open, but i wish to have the foto showing in my record. Anyone help me with any ideas? I am using access 2003

Please help!
Does anyone know what command will allow Access to pull Dimensions from Explorer into a Query?
I wish to have a query that will illustrate the exact Dimension of an image file (Jpeg). This will enable me to filter all images which do not meet my internet standard of 100x100 dpi and/or 300x300 dpi.
Your help is much appreciated. :D

I have recently learned how to link photos to a database using a form and a table listing the path to each photo. Is there anyway to format the records in the table so that when you click on the path the photo shows up?
I have browsed around past threads and have not found and answer.
Thanks

When you query Photo.name, you get a line for each photo name attached to a record
1 aunt sally a.jpg
1 aunt sally b.jpg
1 aunt sally c.jpg
2 Uncle Joe x.jpg
3 Cousin Bob l.jpg
What I would like is to have it appear like this
1 aunt sally a.jpg; b.jpg; c.jpg
2 Uncle Joe x.jpg
3 Cousin Bob L.jpg

I have a text box that is Hyperlink to a directory that opens fine and gives me access to files that I need. What I want is to place a photo of a particular button I've found (in the form) and on the click event have the hyperlink in the text box activate and open the directory.
1. I can't change the shape of the text box or place a picture within it...
2. I can set the pictures control source as the hyperlink text box but that serves no purpose...
3. Making the text box transparent and all the text white then overlay-ed the picture ...
It worked but I would like the appropriate way to do this.....being at such a critical stage of my access development......

I'm trying to create a many to many table (which I know how to do). But this is a little complicated.
I have several photos that are part of my database, so I have them in their own table which contains:
ID
CallName
PhotoType
Source
Computer Link (to where photos are stored on my hard drive)
The photo type comes from another table, one of the types is People.
So I want to have a many to many table so I can connect people photos to places where they live. That's pretty easy, you just put foreign keys for the photo CallName and for the Place Name.
However, I want the person's photo to show up also (in a container I will put on the form). In order to do this, I need to have a field for computer link that is automatically populated based on which Photo Call Name I choose. Can you do that in a many to many form? How?

I am setting up a database with an image linked to each record. I have installed Photo Editor as required to display jpeg files. However, when I try to insert object in the table field, Photo Editor does not appear as an option under 'Object Type'. How can I use Photo Editor as my OLE server to display jpegs? Or, can someone suggest a better way to display images on forms? I'm a newbie, so although I'll try more advanced programming if required, I will need quite detailed step-by-step instructions :)
Thanks!

I have a form where I can add a new resident. It runs off a query that shows ID as null and has a button to add the data and refresh the form and query. I used to drop in OLE files but have since changed it to a linked image file. What I want to do is pull the info from the data that I input as a new resident.
Basically it means that any staff member can take a photo of the resident and put it in a folder and the database will point to that file.
The location is..."C:UsersRP"&[First Name]&" "&[Last Name]&".jpeg" First Name and Last Name are in the table already. I have tried using an append and an update query to no avail.
