I want to display a series of images in a Continuous Form not as an OLE but in an image frame (liking to the picture file)

The code which works well for me in a Single Form view

Me![ImageFrame].Picture = Me![PathFile]


gives all frames in the Continuous Form with the same picture (all are updated to the mage in the current record.

Thanks

Your problem is that you are using an unbound frame. In continuous forms, all unbound controls (whether they be text boxes, combo boxes, frames or OLE objects) will display the current value in all instances of that object because the contents of the object are not tied to one of the records being displayed.

You would have to include the image as a column in the recordset and bind the field on the continuous form to that image.
