>I want to add a JPG image to the general field and using the command
>"append General <
> from Tdm.Jpg" includes only the file name in the Field and when I try to add the BMP insted of JPG the image gets added. Kindly Help me in this regard
General fields have three major problems: 1) They take up much, much, much more space than the JPG file. 2) Because of problem #1, you can easily go beyond the limit of 2 GB for VFP-files. 3) It is very difficult to get the images back out of the General field.
The usual recommendation is to keep the JPG as a separate file; then create a small character or memo field which contains the filename.
