Hi Landy
I just created an image database by importing a number of images
into FMP8 from a series of folders. During the import process, one
can get the filename, file path, the image itself and a thumbnail
of the image.
Now what I would like to do is create a calculating field that will
tell me the image size (in KB) of the image in the container field
(the one holding the JPEG, GIF or TIFF) image. Reading help and
scanning the functions, I have not been able to figure out a way to
achieve this.
Use Length (ContainerField) to get the size in bytes

Works great! I had tried using Length (ContainerField) as an
auto-enter calculation during import, but that didn't work. Changing
the number field with auto-enter into a calculation field and using
Length (ContainerField)/1000 works just fine.
