I have a text field that automatically calculates a path to the image based on other fields.

Lets say the text in this field is this:

"filewin:/I:/jobs/241304/T1.gif"

Which is a valid image if I put I:jobs241304T1.gif into My Computer it comes right up.

I have another field on my form of type Calculation, which gets that path, and returns it as a Container.

This works well. I get a shortcut to the image on my form which if I double-click on it will open the image up. But how can I get filemaker to put the image onto the form, not link it.

Opps!

Helps if I change filewin to image.

LOL!
