Yes, it works with pictures in graphics files. Audiogenie is, I guess, software with which I am not familiar. I don't know of any way to display a picture read in as a string directly from any Access control, and I'm not aware of any custom controls that would handle it (but the world is full of custom controls, so that doesn't mean there isn't such a control available). With today's faster processors, faster (and more) memory, and faster disk drives, the time to store to disk may not be intolerable. -- Larry Linson Microsoft Office Access MVP Co-Author, Microsoft Access Small Business Solutions, Wiley 2010 "Jürgen Meyer" <juergen.ul.meyer@gmx.de> wrote in message news:qlprf9hul6btscql65qu37eg4a0je2gt20@4ax.com... > On Mon, 10 Feb 2014 12:55:52 -0600, "Access Developer" > <accdevel@gmail.com> > wrote: > >>Not sure how you "store a picture as a string". >> >>In "classic Access, as far as I know the Access Image Control only >>displays >>"standard graphics file formats", of which JPEG/JPG is one, windows bitmap >>.BMP is another.
