>Suppose you want to link pictures (JPEG) in your table so they can be displayed on forms and reports. Should the field type be character with the filespec for the photo, or general with a link to photo? Assuming the answer is General, how do you set the form image control and the report image control to display the picture?

Your field should be either Character (file name) or Blob (actual image file contents). On form use Image.PictureVal=[blob field]. On report use Picture/OleBound bound to file name.
