You can use Insert Picture from field for this and then select the calculated field whose IIF expression returns the path/filename of the desired image files.____Kathleen__R&R Support

[updated:LAST EDITED ON Feb-19-07 AT 04:31 PM (EST)]Make a calculated field such as:__iif(salesytd>10000,"c:imagespic1.jpg","c:imagespic2.jpg" )____(you can place this field onto your report at this point to make sure it^s working properly before proceeding)____then from the "Insert" menu choose "Picture From Field" ____place the frame for where the picture will be and then choose the calculated field that you built from the popup that will appear next.____(** ps one bug I^ve found, in case you have bigger plans for this wonderful feature is: if you want to export to HTML to generate web catalog type web pages it doesn^t seem to export the associated individual images properly just the default image... soooo disappointing I wanted to cry! Printing is no problem though.)________>Any idea how to set condition to select picture ? __>__>for example : iif(true,picture1,picture2) __>__>Thks in advance __>__>Toto __
