Hi
thanks for ur help,

but i have another problem, i cannot use the data control :)

so could there be any other solution, which does not use data control

thanks in advance.

I have personally run into this issue before and I just avoided the whole issue by storing the bitmap image in a certain directory and saving the complete DIR in the database instead of embedding the Bitmap in the database. It's not exactly a preferred method by any means but if nothing else works, then this might be your only choice. Hope this helps!

Babu,
My VB program uses CRE8 for reporting. I just upgraded to Crystal 9. Do you know of any easy ways to migrate to RAS from RDC?
