Uploading Multiple Pictures Into Access
Oct 18, 2006
Hi there
im trying to build a database that stores a large number of photos and would like some suggestions on how i can upload multiple photos (20+) at one time without uploading each one individualy, preferably through a form.
To outline the problem, each member of the team has a camera that they take to jobs, when they return i want them to be able to open a new form, enter the job number (the primary key) onto the form and then somehow drag and drop the pictures from the camera onto the form to upload them.
Is this possible through Access? is this the best way of uploading multiple photos easily? and how do i build this?
Thanks in advance
MJ

I am currently working on a project for work on re-creating our database for our daily audits. We enter daily information on a form which feeds to the table and in return we run the queries to get the percentages and all that good information. I was asked to be able to load a picture of to a particular record. Can I do that from the form and that link to the table and to the queries that run?

I want to push a table from Access to a specific SQL Server database.
Is there an easy way to do this? I have an ODBC connection to the SQL Server Database and I can import tables from SS to Access... but is there a way to do the reverse?
Thanks much!

I have a report that shows information on a property, and most have only one pictures, but some have several. The picture name is the same as the property code on the one's with only one pictures for example 1500-1111 is the property name and the picutres is 1500-1111 The only difference in the picture name on the properties with multiple picutes is that they have an a, b, c, d etc after the code, for example the first pictures is 1500-1234 and the second is 1500-1234a and the third is 1500-1234b etc, and the property code is 1500-1234.
I need to figure out a way for all the pictures to show up if there is multiples. The report only contains info on one side, so the other could line up the pictures in a column form. Any suggestions would be great.
Thanks
Private Sub Report_Open(Cancel As Integer)
Me.FilterOn = True
Me.Filter = Forms!frmpropertydatabase.Filter
End Sub
Private Sub Detail_Format(Cancel As Integer, FormatCount As Integer)
If Len(Dir("H:ApartmentsApartment Property Photos" & Me.propertycodenumber & ".jpg")) = 0 Then
Me.imgEmpty.Picture = "H:ApartmentsApartment Property Photosophoto.jpg"
Else
Me.imgEmpty.Picture = "H:ApartmentsApartment Property Photos" & Me.propertycodenumber & ".jpg"
End If
End Sub

To start off I have only been working in Access(2003) for the past 2 months. And Yes I am a neebie of all neebies but please read on.
What I am trying to do is for every record I need to associate multiple pictures of damages to items in for repair. For example I have an High end Amplifier that came in for repair and the outside has markings of a fire(thats one pix) then opening it up we see that the fuses, wires and PC board has fire marks also(pix two) and so on. The record is keyed to the serial number. On the form my fields are Serial number, RMA #, all the senders info (name,address, contact number, store purchased, etc.). Then I created a subform for the picture with the following the picture itself, buttons(previous, next, add pic, delete pic) a hiden textbox(serial number) that I have joined(relationship) to the major form(serial number).
How do I link the pic to that specific serial number and then other pictures that also link to that serial number.
I know its wordy but I wanted to make it as clear as I could.
Thank You
Roborro

I am using Access 2003 in a simple database and want to add digital pictures of each item in my database.
Before trying to enhance the database with pictures; the various fields are filled with either descriptive text or numbers. The size of the mdb database file is 464k.
I recently wanted to add a picture of each database entry. After adding a picture that is only 300k in size the mdb file increase to 18MD. Then after adding another picture also of 300k bytes my database grew to 25MB.
In the drop down menus Under Tools - Database Utilities - I ran the Compact & Repair Database. This did not reduce the size.
In the database Form I am using a Bound Object Frame to hold the picture and yes I am not linking the picture I am including it in the database. But, would only expect it to increase the database size by slightly more than the picture size.
I should also point out that the only way I have found to get the picture to be visible (not just an icon of the type of picture file) is to right click on the Bound Object Frame scroll down and choose Insert Object. Click on Create New and select Adobe Photoshop Image. This open adobe photoshop I make sure the picture properties are creating a picture of 300k.
So my question(s) is again. Why is my database increasing in size so rapidly? Is there a better to insert picture into a database?
Regards, Roy (HerlocherR@aol.com)

I know its possible with the right code because I put animations into my VB assignment last year. I just need to know how to do those group things where several objects of the same type (like twelve picture frames) have the same name and are told apart by a number in brackets. eg. imgThewave(1).
Thanks

I am using access 2013 to make a PowerPoint presentation based on the data in a query. I know how to do that much using VBA but I am also trying to make a slide with a picture on it from a saved location.
Dim db As Database, rs As Recordset
Dim ppObj As PowerPoint.Application
Dim ppPres As PowerPoint.Presentation
On Error GoTo err_cmdOLEPowerPoint
[code]....
At the moment I am not worrying about adding the data as I know how to do this and had it working before - its just adding the picture to the slide.

Where I can get some better pictures for my access database. The standard ones are really not all that great. I am looking for a stock pile of pics that I can place in my files so that I can draw upon them whenever I am designing my database.
I just havent had much luck designing buttons in GIMP.

I have a report that links to a picture. It displayed great in earlier versions of access, but when I switched to 2007, the pictures are displayed but they look like they are posterized. They print just fine. I use an image frame, zoom size mode and centered. They are fairly substantial jpegs (2 megs), but regardless, it is the change to Access 2007 that caused the problem.

I have successfully used the recommended way to display images from a folder in a form as posted on the microsoft website.
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/210100/
These instructions were for Access 2000. I noticed that there are seperate instructions for doing this using Access 2003.:
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/285820/
My questions are:
1. If multiple users access this database using different versions of Access (2000 and 2003) will it not work for some?
2. do i have to modify code if i update to 2003?
Thanks for youir feedback!

is this possible or is there any other option?
Thanx tom

I built a form that will allow each page header to take the info needed depending on who is using the data base. I seem to be having a problem having the Logo uploaded so that it can be used. Since I am new to Access, my only example would be like a web page. use the location of the picture in the code and it pulls it up for each page associated. I guess this would be 2 questions. How do I add to my form the upload of the graphics and how do I get the reports and forms to pull that picture into the header every time.

I have a large database of items we sell on Amazon, I am looking to automate the process of uploading the inventory.
I am uploading a tab delimeted text file using the following code,
With CreateObject("msxml2.xmlhttp")
.Open "POST", strURL, False
.setRequestHeader "Host:", "mws.amazonservices.co.uk"
.setRequestHeader "User-Agent:", "VBA"
.setRequestHeader "Content-MD5:", md5hdr2
.setRequestHeader "Content-Type:", "text"
.send c2a
Forms!Form1.Text3.value = .responseText
End With
I am confident I have the signature and the MD5 Header, but I cannot get the data into Amazon!
I keep getting a non-descript error "InputDataError".
When debugging my Play API, I was told that the "send" command was not uploading the file contents, it was uploading the filename! So c2a is a string variable that contains the tab delimited data. This works like a charm for Play, but no joy for Amazon.
