Hello Dutch,__For several years now, R&R has had the ability to print "variable graphics." These are JPEG images that vary according to the filename that is stored in the database that points to the actual image file on your disk.____If you have an image filename stored for a given record (i.e. the field IMAGENAME contains "x:picsmypic.jpg") and an actual file by the same name exists in the stated location, then the report will display the correct image.____When you go to the insert picture menu, choose the "FIELD" option.
