I need to get the original image that was inserted into the AutoShape. When I open the Fill Picture Dialog in 'Format AutoShapes'. I can see the original image. It is there somewhere, but its acting too elusive for me, or maybe I'm looking in the wrong place. Any help would be highly appreciated. Thanks, ANIKET Per the support engineer: We can not get the picture object by vba. But m aybe this is helpfu ...Show All

• .NET Development Thanks and VWD

  I am using SQL Express and I do not know how to add images to my database.  I've created a dataset and linked it to datalists so everything is perking along except I'm just clueless on the image handling.  I create a resx file thinking that  would work except I don't know how to coordinate it with the data.  In Access it is an easy thing to add an image OLE object to my database which gives me a load of options in reports so you would think that it would handle similarly here, but I'm not making any progress and after a week an half of hunting around I'm hoping someone here will clue me in.
