[AccessD] A really silly and dumb - maybe even ridiculous-accessquestion

Thanks to everyone for helping me out!

I changed the control type to bound and everything works fine now.

Dim varAppIcon As Variant
With rstTemp
	.Edit
      strAppName = !fldAppName
      strVersion = !fldVersion
      varAppIcon = !fldAppIcon
	etc...
      .Close
End With
Me.imgAppIcon = varAppIcon

Thanks again!
John B.
