Doug, You might want to try: http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/en/confirmation.aspx?FamilyID=cf196df0-70 e5-4595-8a98-370278f40c57&displaylang=en (watch the wrap). This re-installs all the available formats for Office. I've used this in the past when something like this happens. Kind of strange though that Word is OK but Access is not. It's my understanding that all the Office products use the same converters. I'd try it anyway. I've never had any negative effects from using it. Jim. -----Original Message----- From: accessd-bounces at databaseadvisors.com [mailto:accessd-bounces at databaseadvisors.com] On Behalf Of Doug Steele Sent: Tuesday, November 02, 2010 12:14 PM To: Access Developers discussion and problem solving Subject: [AccessD] Access JPG display problem I have an Access 2003 form with an image control to display small jpg files which are stored outside the database. Each time the form loads, it picks a matching jpg and sets the Picture property of the image control. This works just fine on my system and one of my clients. On another client, the database shows an error message saying the database 'doesn't support the format'. Microsoft's website says that I shouldn't need any extra add-ons to display jpgs, the capability is built into Office 2003. Loading a jpg into Word on the problem client's system works OK. Does anyone have any suggestions for a fix?
