>>>I have a client that has a need for printing images on a report. We havce a limited amount of space and unfortunately, the graphics are of varying sizes. We have set the image up to "size to fit" since that will keep the shape. However, if it dosen't fit properly, then there is a grey section for the area that doesn't have any image in it. I have tried many things to get rid of it including making a different application associated with the images. Nothing works.

Rodney,

Is it possible that you have a filled rectangle behind the picture control on the report designed to frame the picture? Are you using the standard picture control from the report tool bar or using an activeX control to display the picture? Is the picture from a file on disk or from a field and how are you specifying which picture to print? I have tried with VFP6 SP5 standard picture control from the report tool bar and the images size properly without a gray area outside of those pictures smaller than the picture control.
