> Is there a way to get the picture to show up?

Kevin,

If you use an image control, you can set the Picture property to the name of .bmp file. This will display the image for you. My users prefer this since they can store their images as seperate .bmp files and the database does not get so large with all the graphics. I put a button on the form that calls the GetPict() fucntion and lets them select the image file.

Kind Regards,
