I developed an Access 2003 database (front-end/back-ends) and created a
runtime (packaged). All is well when installing it on most machines, but I'm
installing it on one machine with Windows XP SP1 which has *never* (user
emphatic) had any MS Office products installed on it.

Part of the app is bringing up various .jpg files in an image control.

This user receives error:
"... doesn't support the format of the file..."

I have found numerous articles (and the www.lebans.com website) mentioning
this issue with the solution being to download and install GID+DLL.zip...
however, that file's instructions say *not* to install it on an XP system...

Help?

The Image control requires the relevant Graphics Filter to display jpeg, which is part of the full Office
setup.

Unfortunately, full Office setup is not going to happen on this machine (or
any stand-alone Office product for that matter). I'm looking for a
work-around.

Does anyone know anything about the 2003 Office Converter Pack?

http://support.microsoft.com/kb/212265/

Can this be installed on a machine without Office? Would it fix my issue?

Any help is appreciated
