Subject: [AccessD] Display image from hyperlink

Dear List:
 
I have a question from someone who needs to display an image in an Access
form.  If it was a local file that would be no problem.  I've done that. But
the source for the image is a URL. 
 
I tried making the url the control source of an image control but it won't
take it - say it can't open the file.  I did set picture type to linked.
 
Is there an easy way to do this?
 
TIA
