How is the storage set for the field?

Do not store calculation results. Recalculate when needed.
For calculations, check Storage Options when in the Specify Calculation dialog. If Indexing is on with build as needed, they will auto re-calc. If global or no indexing with no build as needed, the calc is performed the when the record is created and not again.

This is probably the problem. I have the logo's stored in a different table called Functions in a field with multiple repetitions. This table is related by a constant so that all fields are available to all tables. This is left over from a multi file database. I'm going to try storing the logo in the same file.

For standard fields: Options -> Storage tab.
Same info about indexing as above.

What is the relationship Functions?

A table to store info that I wanted available to all other tables. Related to the other tables by a global constant.
What are key (match) fields?

A global constant
Are they the same type?

Yes

And of course, the first question should have been: what version FM and what OS?

FM 8.5   -  OS 10.4.8
