[AccessD] Using Library Form

Well, first off, I was doing this completely backward. I shouldn't have set
this to CodeDB but to CurrentDB!

As for the bound data - I haven't found a way to do this so it makes sense
time-wise to just change it all to unbound. DONE

OK everything works now EXCEPT:

I store the application icon in the table as an OLE field (it is also stored
in the "application icon" property). I have always diplayed this on the
SysInfo form as it looks nice.

How do I go about reading an OLE field from the recordset (or the
"Application Icon" property) and presenting it for display on the form?
