Mike: I can't find the code quickly, but something we do in a report might work for a form. We have a variable image in the report, but sometimes there's nothing to display. We didn't want a blank space there. So in windows paint we created a simple .bmp file that says something like "No scanned image to display"; it has a border around it, could have a little picture if you wanted. On the before generate we check for the existence of the regular image, if it's not there set the variable to this other image, do a Recalc Var and it shows either image.
