Store the picture in a database and add it as a field.Quote:

If possible i don't want to store picture in database. :(
Can i do this by using picture path?
Thanks guys
Naruponk,
I don't know how to do the workaround and pass a path to the picture in the report. If you are doing this over a network you could have problems if the computer that the picture is stored on is down... etc. However, at one point I did a Google search on this and found that there "might be" a way to point to a picture through a path, "if you buy this internet book". At the same time, it said in the post that it was complicated. (I didn't buy the book, because putting my pictures in a database has worked fine for me.) Why are you hesitant about putting your pictures in a database?
Asgorath,
I did this in VB.net with CR 9. It should just be a matter of selecting the image field, like you select any other field and displaying it on the report. There is an example from Crystal Reports if you have CR9. Do a search on your computer for xtreme.mdb. It is a sample mdb on .net which shows how to do this. Let me know if you can't find xtreme.mdb and I'll upload it for you.
Ok, if no way to do this, i'll store picture in a database.
Thanks for help guys :wave:
