>now wile showing the report i m creating one cursor on the fly with the general field and then from the path saving image in it and then showing this in the report. as long as i was using this report in the windows 2003 server it was working fine to me but wen this project i tried to run on the windows xp or anyother window other than 2003 server the only picture with the bmp extension is showing in the report. if i try to show the jpg or any other one its not displaying. but on the same time it can b seeing only on the 2003 server. is there any prob with the windows or its just a bug of vfp or seomthing else.

You don't need general field to show an image on report. You have filename and path in a field, right? Place an olebound/picture control and set its file property to:
(FieldNameHoldingFileNameAndPath)
