[Solved] Images in a database

Post by BarneyinOz »

I have just constructed a database and it works very well, with 1 exception. 1 of the fields is an image. I have the image saved as a tif file. When I save it into the database field and print it into a report, the image is far smaller than I expected. To enlarge the image do I start at the image end, the database input or the report end.

Regards
H

Open the Properties dialog for the Image Control on your report. Look at the bottom of the list on the General tab for the Scale property. There are only 3 options so see which one works best. Sometimes changing the dimensions on the control will also help.
