Yep, in your dbase you set the path to the image (../images/bla.gif) then in your page set the cursor in the cell where you want to have the image click on the insert image button and in the top of the screen select from data source.

Then look for the record set you take the repeat region of and select the image field.

save your work and of you go !!

litle tip: make the image field an excact value like 178 x 178 else it could end up pretty ugly

[thank you. i didn't explain my goal very well so it left you trying to assume where i was heading. the goal is to have a hyper link field in the table that will allow a user to click on it if they wanted to access a picture of the item. for instance look at this line the first line is the header

itemID pic description QtyOnHand AddOne
341 gif? brochure 130 link

how can i have a link in the pic field which would take them to the gif, preferably opening a new browser window. thanks very much, michael moore
