Hi John,
Try opening your FRX file as a table then browse for the image record:
BROWSE FOR objtype=17 FIELDS picture
Open up the memo field and look at the exact path and name of the image:
for example:
"..\yourimage.jpg"
How is it relative to your main folder file placements and subfolder
where it is stored?

Hi Tracy,
Not sure what you mean by *copy it out*. For development purposes I put
everything in a set of sub-folders within a single main folder. The data is
in one sub-folder and the source code, including the image, is in another
sub-folder. Both the app and the exe sit next to one another inside the
main folder so the path to the image is identical.

John,
Is the image in a relative path to the report.
The image needs to be on the disk, not in the executable. *(unless you
copy
it out)*
HTH,
Tracy

Subject: Report Anomaly
I have written a membership system for a local organisation. I decided to
add
a facility to email a membership card to a member instead of posting it.
I created a report which consists of a jpg image containing the background
and base text, a scan of the original blank card, with 3 fields
superimposed to
hold name, membership no and expiry date. The image is in the page header
section as it uses global variables for the data; I tried putting it in
the body
and using a single record cursor but the system insisted on producing
three
cards on the same sheet for some reason. The card is produced as a PDF
using FoxyPreviewer and sent as an attachment. When I run it from VFP as
an app it works perfectly but when I run it from the exe the report
contains
the data but not the background image.
I'm baffled! Any suggestions would be gratefully received :-)
