    Yes Myke!  Your presumption is correct.

  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?
     
    TIA,
