Hello:

I’m trying to Configure a container field to accept a file path to a jpeg from a text field, and then to display it as a picture in the container box. I have been able to get the container field accept a path through a calculated value using GetAsText (FieldName), and to display the jpeg as a file (which can be opened or exported), but it will not display as an inserted picture.

Ultimately I need to automate the insertion of pictures via database generated file paths.

Exmp:

file:/Macintosh HD/Users/jon/Desktop/Shapes/pic3.jpg is entered in “field_1”

pic3.jpg displays as a lovely little picture in container field “field_2” –

provided of course that the file exists in that path. Would also like that container file to update if the picture “pic3_jpg” changes is replaced with a different picture with the same name.

Thanks for any insight
