[AccessD] Image Thumbnails in Continuous Forms

A.D.:

Thanks for the example. I think I can adapt it to my app.

If I understand your simulated continuous form design, I would need 10
identical subforms with different names if I wanted to display 10 records
per page. Is that correct?

Thanks,

Myke

Myke,

    Apparently, you wish to display externally stored images via image
control (avoiding OLE field, to prevent bloat).

    My sample db named ImageManager might be of interest to you. It is
available at Rogers Access Library (other developers library). Link -
http://www.rogersaccesslibrary.com/OtherLibraries.asp#Tejpal,A.D.


    This sample db uses image control, assigning relevant file paths to its
picture property. User can browse & select the image files in target folder
and their paths get stored programmatically in access table.

    Apart from covering display of images via slide shows (manual advance or
automatic advance as desired), the sample also demonstrates display of
images in thumbnail view, in continuous form style (it is a simulated
continuous form).

    You could adapt the underlying approach suitably, for your specific
needs.
 
Best wishes,
A.D.Tejpal

  Has anyone found a viable way to display thumbnails for linked (external)
images in a continous form in Access 2003?
