Hi!
The report control for picture works very well when you specify Field.mMemoWithPicturePath as a source for that field. however, ALL files from that field should exists, and there should be no empty path - instead of empty path you require to use some blank picture. Get data into the cursor by SELECT statement, use (DBF()) again it to make it writeable, then check all files of they're correct and replace invalid/empty picture filenames by the blank picture name. Then run report. Note that all pictures should be on disk, report will not get picture compiled into the EXE file.

The professional level of programmer could be determined by level of stupidity of his/her bugs
It is not appropriate to say that question is "foolish". There could be only foolish answers. Everybody passed period of time when knows nothing about something.
