>>>Does it works with forms too ? I created a table with a general field and the size of the .fpt file is 104 Mb, while the size of all .tif files is 311 kb (53 files)??? So I created a character field for the path of the file (nm_file) and in the controlsource of the OLE Bound Control I put v_portfolio.nm_file and it is not working. Anything wrong with this ?

>Thanks John, but I must be doing something wrong. I dropped an Image control in my form, set the Picture property to v_Portfolio.nm_file and got a message "File 'v_Portfolio.nm_file' does not exist". Then I typed =v_Portfolio.nm_file, got no error, but after running the application is not showing any image (yes, I tested if the file exists). Any tips ?

Run the form and from the command box try _screen.activeform.image1.picture=allt(myfile.photofield) If it displays, it may just be a need to trim blanks.
