I haven't tried this in VFP 6, but in VFP 5 CLEAR RESOURCES is sometimes needed to get VFP to refresh an image.

>I created an app using the application wizard. This app only has a few fields and is created just to look at how the FFC handles things and also to see the image handling capablities of VFP6. The table has two significant fields - 1. jpegname which is character 35 and holds the string for the fullpath to the images and the other is the image control.

>I've tried the following code
>thisform.image1.picture=thisform.txtjpgname.value
>in the show of the form, the activate, the init of the txtjpgname, init of the image1 control and the refresh of the form. Nothing works as it should. The best I've seen was being one record off.
