Importing Images

[patsky]

I need to be able to do the following:

1. Click a button on a layut to locate an image file, which will be on a server

2. Save the pathname to the selected file in the database

3. Display the image on the layout and possibly in reports

How do I accomplish these things? We are using Macs so can't use OLE.

TIA

1. Use the Insert Image script step, as reference only.

2. The path is automatically stored. Use GetasText(container) to see it.

3. Set a global container = container, and put the global container on your layouts. You won't need a relationship.
