Hi, Store all picture files in the same directory as your Base file.
Call menu:Tools>SQL and execute: ALTER TABLE "PicTable" DROP COLUMN "Pics"; ALTER TABLE "PicTable" ADD COLUMN "Pics" VARCHAR(100); SHUTDOWN COMPACT; where "PicTable" should be replaced with the actual name of your table and "Pics" with the actual name of the field in that table. The database will be defragmented and is no longer accessible. Restart the office suite, open the database and your form. A double-click on the picture control still opens a file picker dialog. But now it stores only the file name in the database field and loads the actual picture data from that file. If you want to convert this embedded HSQL database to a "real" database follow this description: > https://forum.openoffice.org/en/forum/viewtopic.php?f=6&t=62905&p=278742#p278742 Hope this helps. -- To unsubscribe e-mail to: [email protected] Problems? http://www.libreoffice.org/get-help/mailing-lists/how-to-unsubscribe/ Posting guidelines + more: http://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Netiquette List archive: http://listarchives.libreoffice.org/global/users/ All messages sent to this list will be publicly archived and cannot be deleted
