Stephen - thanks for your suggestion. In the end, this is essentially what I did. In the report form - when you put an image on it - the image referene cam also come from a GENERAL type variable - and that is what I did - and got to work with the General field type for the first time. It all worked out, and my Tech's were QUITE happy and impressed by my solution - since one of the other programmers there Gave Up and said it couldn't be done!!! Too bad that person, and some of the others - are UnAble to "Think outside the Box!"

Granted you have to figure out how to switch them on the fly but that is why we make the mediocre money isn't it? I did that in a VB 6 form a few years ago. I got the value and copied the graphic representation of that #'s file over the existing version of it. bigNum.jpg -- Stephen Russell --- StripMime Report -- processed MIME parts --- multipart/mixed text/plain (text body -- kept) application/ms-tnef --- _______________________________________________ Post Messages to: [email protected] Subscription Maintenance: http://leafe.com/mailman/listinfo/profox OT-free version of this list: http://leafe.com/mailman/listinfo/profoxtech Searchable Archive: http://leafe.com/archives/search/profox This message: http://leafe.com/archives/byMID/profox/289ea162f5642645b5cf64d624c66a1404254...@us-ny-mail-002.waitex.net ** All postings, unless explicitly stated otherwise, are the opinions of the author, and do not constitute legal or medical advice.
