Guenter,

What variable? Are you doing something like this when you go to a different record?

if file(table1.picFile)
	thisForm.image1.picture = table1.picFile  && where table1.picFile is
                                                  && the field containing the file
                                                  && name including full path
else
	thisForm.image1.picture = ""
endif

>I put the variable containing the path to the picture in the Picture property of the Image control. It shows one picture nicely, but it doesn´t update when I move from rec to record.
