displaying related images in access 2003 forms

[Joe Smith]

I need to display related images on access 2003 forms. I know 2007 is
better at doing this because of the new attachment datatype, but I'm
using user level security so I'm stuck with 2003. The images need to
be in a relationship with the record I'm displaying in the form.

Any suggestions of how to get this done would be greatly appreciated.
THanks in advance.

A bit vague about how the relationships and images are connected but... one
thing you can do in any version of Access is use a Text field storing the
filename (and the path to the folder containing the filename, in the same or
another field, if appropriate); you can then use code in the form's Current
event to set the Picture property of an Image control to the filename.

There are imaging examples that you can download from
http://accdevel.tripod.com/imaging.htm, examine them, and pattern your
implementation on the examples.
