[AccessD] Access JPG display problem

I had the same problem for one client, saw the same thing on Microsoft's website, but never found an answer.  I switched to bmp and that worked for everyone.

  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?

  Thanks,
  Doug
