Hi All

I need to display some images which are JPG but in the form it only shows the filename, however as a check I changed the source to a BMP and the form displayed the image ok.

How can I get a JPG or other image file apart from BMP to display,or am I doing something wrong.

Thanks in advance for any help,advice or guidance given

Return population for a City
If you have a list of cities in A2:A100, use Data, Geography. Then =A2.Population and copy down.
Hi clares,

You can use a jpeg as the background for a form. When you select 'picture' under the form properties, just type in the jpeg's path and it should work the same as a bitmap, I just tried it.

Make sure you have 'picture size mode' and 'picture allignment' set appropriately.

HTH,
