Jason:  You know what, I remember using that exact thing years ago for 
something.  So yeah, if there isn't something simple, I'll do that.  Thanks for 
the reminder!

something like NoImage.png and then use IFNULL in your query to load it in 
place of nulls.  SELECT …(IFNULL(fieldname,’NoImage.png’,fieldname))….  This 
does not directly solve your problem but it is a low effort way around it.

Subject: [RBASE-L] - A "null" variable image    Hopefully I can explain this.   
I have attached a print-screen because my embedded images don't show in the 
list emails.    Each part we print on this report can have unlimited (or no) 
photos saved on disk.  We will print no more than 4 on the page, so I am 
pulling 4 random photos into my text variables (vfilename1, 2, 3, 4), and 
Variable Images are located.    Works great except when I have null variables.  
As shown on the attached, vFilename1 and vFilename2 have values and print the 
photos just fine.  But variables vFilename3 and vFilename4 are NULL (as shown 
below, my null setting is actually ' ' when printing but I changed to -0- to 
show you the list).     The null ones have that weird white/red thing.  I'm 
wondering if I am missing a setting for these.  I know I can write code to make 
controls invisible, but I was hoping I'm missing something simple.    Any clues 
for me?    Karen    Variable                       = Value

vFilename1                     = F:\Quality\123773-A.jpg                  TEXT  
  
vFilename2                     = F:\Quality\123773-B.jpg                  TEXT  
   vFilename3                     = -0-                                      
TEXT    
vFilename4                     = -0-                                      TEXT
