How to change picture in report at runtime

[nirajj]

I have a picture in the report but I would like to change the picture file at runtime. Any ideas how I can do that ???

Thanks

I found the solution !!!

Created a cursor with General field type to hold my picture.

CREATE CURSOR MyGenTbl (mygenfield G)
APPEND BLANK
APPEND GENERAL mygenfield FROM "picture.bmp"

In the report change the picture property "Picture from" to field "MyGenTbl.mygenfield"

Works great.

Thanks !!!!

You can also use a public variable to store the path to the picture you want to display.

set the picture property in report designer to 'file', and use the variable name, say pix for example.
Then in your code:
public pix

pix = 'c:\yourapp\graphics\stdpic.jpg'
repo form yourform

Just change pix value to whatever the path is to the picture you want to display, before running the report.
