ObjectPAL or Paradox Programming - anyone?

[bean262]

I am working on a project at work using Paradox and/or ObjectPAL, and while I have a book here to help, I am not getting very far, with a certain feature. I am looking for some help by anyone who might know something or have some experience in ObjectPAL.

I am looking to display a picture within my form. The path to the picture is stored in my table. I want to be able to search/scroll through the records displayed in the form, and as I changed from record to record, the picture change with it.

Any help you could provide would be greatly appreciated!

Have you looked at the samples database that comes with Paradox, there is a complete application built in their for a Dive (Sub Aqua) shop which displays pictures and a description of different types of fish. If you hold your pictures in Paradox in the fields (I think they are called BLOB Binary fields, designated graphic fields when you restructure the table) you should be able to do what you want to do. Look in the \Corel \Shared\ Samples directory.

Hope this helps.
