>>I have this problem using our app with general fields and Crystal Reports (but i think the problem is not Crystal Reports) When i print an image imported in a general field (BMP format), in the report i can't see the image, but i have a simple icon with the name of the file i imported in the general fields.... With previous pversions of Windows we have no problems.... This problem only with Windows 11 verified on different pc (not only one)...

Also a waste of file space. Store links to the files instead. (And, duplicate the pics to something near the database, while obfuscating filename)

Ok. But in this way i don't know how to print these images in a list in Crystal Reports (we use version 9). At the moment with general fields we can associate to every item in my table one image and then print it in a report.... If i use an external image file i am not sure to be able to print it in a simple list...
