Stephanie,

I am just doing this. I grabbed the OLE control from the main VFP control toolbar and dragged and dropped it on my form and made it the size that I wanted my picture to be about 3" x 5". Then I put some code in a command button for the Picture property such THISFORM.imgPicture.Picture="c:\pictures\pic1.jpg" or it could be .pcx, but JPG takes up less storage space and comes from a digital camera in that format I think. And I make the control source property for the OLE Image Control something like MyPics. So you could have MyPics="c:\pictures\pic1.jpg" and I think it would accomplish the same thing as THISFORM example above. Do a form Refresh so the pic shows up when you run the form. You could use a substitution name for the picture location because there will be alternate picture names/locations that have to be shown. Also, you should probably keep all the pics in a common directory so you can locate them in that spot time and again.

I am still refining this process in my form that I am currently working on so I hope this helps you get started. Have a nice day.
