Adding a Picture to a Report

  • Article

You can insert a picture as part of the report. For example, a company logo can appear in the page header of an invoice. Pictures from a file are static; they do not change with each record or group of records. If you want to change the display depending on the record, insert a General field instead.

To add a picture

  1. From the Report Controls toolbar, choose the Picture/OLE Bound Control button.

  2. In the Report Designer, drag to size the picture.

  3. In the Picture from area, select File.

  4. In the File box, type a file location.

    Choose the dialog button to select a graphic file.

  5. If appropriate, set the size, position, or print options.

  6. Choose OK.
