I read a tutorial for displaying images from a database but ran into an error:
Within my table "teams" I have a field called 'timage' which contains the path to an image (/images/logo.jpg).
All I want to do is display that logo next to its corresponding team.
I thought I could do something like this:
<% dim pic
pic="SELECT timage FROM teams WHERE ID=1" %>
<IMG SRC="pic">
Now I am sure everyone will laugh becuase that is really wrong, but I am new and don't know the problem. The tutorial said I had to create a new .asp page to display the image, I didn' think that applied to what I am trying to do and tried to work around that. Please help me. thanks!
I have the following VB Code to pull an image path and display in a form:
Code:Private Sub Form_Current() On Error Resume Next Me![ImageFrame].Picture = Me![Photo]End SubPrivate Sub Photo_AfterUpdate() On Error Resume Next Me![ImageFrame].Picture = Me![Photo] End Sub
The problem is that not all of the field's (Photo) contain a path. How can I have it display "C:imageslank.jpg" if there is no specified path?
Don't Kill me folks... I know this has been asked and answered, but I'm not able to get it to work. I'm using Access 2000.
I have an image in the Report called ImageFrame and the following code:
Code:Private Sub Detail_Format(Cancel As Integer, FormatCount As Integer) On Error Resume Next Me.ImageFrame.Picture = Me.PhotoEnd Sub
What am I doing wrong? Is there something else to set? I don't get an error, but it only shows the image I chose to place the image control in the first place...
I have a form in which I want to retrieve images from a folder. Each record contains a txt field where the path of the image is located. Not every record contains a path to the image file as some records does not have images. I have created an image field in my form and used the following code: Me.Image129.Picture = Me.imagetxt to retrieve the image. I would like to display an image containing the words "No Image" whenever the imagetxt field is blank. How would I do this. I cannot go back and fill in the blank imagetxt field with a path as I am pulling the data from an external source. Also, would this be the same method if I am creating an image field for a report? Any help would be greatly appreciated.
I have a database which creates hyperlinks to a network folder full of images (too many to attach to the database) but I can't figure out an easy way to show those images in forms and reports. I think I'm 90% there, looking online I figured out that if i create a text field (not a hyperlink) in the original table and copy over the hyperlink text, I can use this as the control source of an image control (with the picture type set to 'linked').
That works fine, but I would still have to manually copy over the URL every time I link to a new picture - so is there a way i can get this to feed through automatically?I've tried a couple of ways already (calculated fields, 'set value' macros) but the problem is anytime I try to get clever, Access doubles the link address, making it utterly useless as a control source.
So for example, i ran a macro to set the text field value to equal the hyperlink value of c:mydocspicture.jpg, and the result looked like this c:mydocspicture.jpg#c:mydocspicture.jpg#Or maybe there are functions similar to excel (like 'left' and 'len') which i can use to extract the right part of the hyperlink.
I am using Access 2007.I have an application that keeps track of automotive parts and accessories.I have a table called "PARTS" that contains information about the various parts such as "part_name", "part_id", "price" etc.
I also have a website/shop that displays these various parts and also has an image of each part.I have managed to incorporate Microsoft Web Browser ActiveX functionality within the app so that when I scroll through the Parts table using the PartsForm, it automatically "reads" the URL from a field in the Parts table called "ImageURL" and displays it in the Microsoft Web Browser ActiveX browser window...this works great.
I'm really hoping someone can help with a topic which has cropped up from time to time in the past but which never seems to have been answered satisfactorily, and that's displaying html in a database.
I have a large database which already includes html codes in the fields - it's a complete set of email digest posts with fields for date, sender, message number, subject and body text - which I'd like to display in it's original form. An ordinary form shows all the html code making the contents difficult to read; is there a simple way of being able to view this so that the correct original message layout is shown, i.e., the html is parsed (is that the right expression)?
Perhaps I should point out I'm a complete novice when it comes to Access; I can write a simple form easily enough, but I have zero knowledge of VBA or anything similar, so non-technical answers or a step by step example would be very much appreciated.
Hello Everyone, I am in the final stages of creating a database for school coursework however I am having a few problems with a few features; any help would be much appreciated. The database itself is meant to manage / keep are record of utility bills, it consists of two tables: Invoice and Company.
Problem 1. In the Invoice table there are two fields called Date Due and Date Received the data type is Date/Time, how do I create a validation rule so that Date Due must be after 'Date Received' and vies versa?
Problem 2 I want each record in the database to store an image of a scanned invoice, and the main form called Transaction to show a preview image of the invoice. Much of the code I used is borrowed from the Access Northwind sample database, after some initial success I had to redesign the 'Transaction' form where the picture was shown and now I get the error message: ‘Run-time error 2135, this property is read-only and cannot be set’ I think I know what is causing the error but I have had no luck fixing it, if someone could help me that would be excellent.
Problem 3 Once I get the Transaction form to properly store and display a preview image of an invoice, I want to add a button that opens the image in an external window(ie MSPaint). Currently my only success has been to add a button on the form that launches MSPaint (you have to manually open the image in MSPaint.) Again, if someone could help me sort this out it would be excellent.
Sorry if my problems aren’t clear or well explained.
I have spent many hours looking for answers to my problems in forums, Access help files etc… My computing tutor has little (no) experience with Access so he has been unable to help, hopefully the people on this forum have the expertise.
I am happy to email you my database if you need it to help me with problems 2&3.

I have to create a database with more than ten thousand records. There is a field on which image by clicking the image to be displayed with the default program based on the image on which you clicked.
Code:
Private Sub Campo1_Click() Dim L As Long L = ShellExecute(0, "Open", """" & "C:UsersNickDesktopDocumentiPicturesDioDiego.jpg" & """", vbNullString, vbNullString, 1) End Sub
When onClick event happens on the image is displayed the same image regardless of the record on which you clicked. How do I change the code to open the image of the field that was clicked?
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.
Is there a way to use a command button to display the database window. I changed the Startup to not show the database window and want to be able to show it using a command button. I would appreciate any help.
I have created and saved a form in access automatically from database table. But when I change Display Control of a field from text box to combo box,it is not reflected in the form automatically after I refresh the form.

I have a Inventory DB and i want to integrate scanning. So far i have a table called StockInfo, this table holds information about bar codes (device type, make, model). I have a form called Scan_Barcode, on this form I want to be able to scan a bar code into a text box (text0) and use a afterupdate and requery function to display the results onto a form called EnterInventory.
Not only just the results but I want certain columns from the query to display in certain text boxes on this form. I have a query called FindProduct. that filters the criteria by whats entered on the Scan_Barcode text box (text0). So when i scan a certain bar code i can get the query to display certain product information for the bar code. I just cant get the results onto the HarwareStock form.
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?
I need to update a graphic on my form as part of the record information. Specifically, I have a graphic of the human body, and need the user to be able to mark the area where it hurts-scribble or put an "X" there-whatever. This modified graphic then needs to be stored somewhere and associated with that particular record.
Has anybody done this? Any suggested starting places?
How can I get an animated image on my switchboard? I found an animated image on the internet and I copied it. I went into design view and pasted it onto the switchboard then I went back to form view. I can see the image but it is not animated. How do I animate it?
i have a cars database because it is difficult to add 4000 pictures i want to know if is it possible to add a field that opens an ie page in google images to show results of images for that car? ex : model : Ferrari foto link :http://images.google.com.gr/images?hl=el&lr=&q=Ferrari&btnG=%CE%91%CE%BD%CE%B1%CE%B6%CE%AE%CF%84%CE%B7%CF %83%CE%B7
i have a form with the fields PhotoID PhotoName PHotoPath PhotoDate PhotoSize ImageFrame
my Imageframe is showing the image image format .jpg and size 200kb each
Problem
when i click next record , my mouse is flashing and my db is freezing for 2sec. I have place a code by www.mvps.org which hide the insert dialog message. Also , i have change the registry to No (read the article at the www.mvps.org).
I need something that will make my photo to load faster.
Private Sub Form_AfterUpdate() On Error Resume Next If IsNull(Me![ImagePath]) Then Me![ImageFrame].Picture = "" Else Me![ImageFrame].Picture = Me![ImagePath] End If End Sub
Private Sub Form_Current() On Error Resume Next If IsNull(Me![ImagePath]) Then Me![ImageFrame].Picture = "" Else Me![ImageFrame].Picture = Me![ImagePath] End If End Sub
To make a form which will show a picture (different for each record) if the field 'ImagePath' has an entry in it. If not, it does not show.
The table containing the image is 'tblAnimal' and the field name where the path is stored is 'ImagePath.'
I would like my user to be able to click a button on the form 'frmAnimal' which says 'Add/Change Picture.'
This would then open a File Dialog window where they can navigate to an image (.jpg or .bmp) and select it.
The file path of this image will be subsequently placed into the 'ImagePath' field of the current record that the form is showing (based on 'tblAnimal.'
I saw a similar technique on the Northwind example database but this uses an extra part and I am a little confused as to which VBA code I need as the OnClick Event of the button.
I have a form that has an image name. The image is stored on a web server. The image can be accessed through a URL. The problem is how can I show the image on my form. When I try to change the picture property of my image control it tells me that it cannot use a web address. Any help would be greatly appriciated
