>I don't think you want to place the scans directly in a table. It will un-necessarily bloat the table. Best is to drop them in folder and use a pointer field in a table. If you want to automate the process of picking up the images from the data that is already in the table, think of a naming scheme for the images that incorporates a unique element of data in each record. BTW, you have some choices in VFP6 as to what image format you wish to work with.

Jim,
What VFP6 form control would you prefer for the display of the image?
