Not sure if this is where to ask, but here goes any way.

I am creating an order form for a customer. They order one of 3 or 4 versions of the product and I want to display the picture based on their selection from a pull down menu. Is this possible? Could you explain?

I use allmost the same trick.

You need a global field (I call it 'Brol' for now) with repetitions (as mutch as there are items)

Put this into your 'Developer-layout'

Make a calculationfield :

Photo - calculation - Container

Case(

Item = "Blabla1" ,

GetRepetion(Brol, 1),

Item = "Blabla2" ,

GetRepetition (Brol, 2),

etc. )

Put this field on your layout, with appropiate dimensions. Rightclick on this field - choose 'Graphic Format'- put image to fit frame to Reduce or Enlarge - uncheck Maintain original proportions.

Go to your 'Developer Layout' and set the 'Brol'field to as much repetitions that you need.(Format - field format)

In Browse mode put the pictures into this field.(copy - past or insert picture)

Job done.

Feel free to ask if there are more questions.

I know I'm sometimes very short in explanations.

Whoops, forgot a part.

This tecnique will give you a picture 'after' the selection is made.

To make a sort of 'pulldown menu' where a choise can be made, I use an other technique.

Check at www.databasepros.com.

Search for 'visibility'.

Poke around in it, it's a wonderfull thing.

Thanks to the developer Jim Mastriani.
