hello,
thank you,

this is my code

I store a picture in myform(pic)

select 1
use pic
APPEND GENERAL pic FROM d:\manylast\newlamp.bmp(no problem)

.......

But when I write this code
select 1
use pic
locate for no=thisform.text1.value
thisform.IMAGE1.value= general .from . pic.pic

(error message operator is invalid for a general field)at query form.
