MS Access Forum / Forms / July 2008bound object frame not working properly on form
I create a Bound Object Frame on my form. I'm trying to link a different pdf file to each record on the form. Two problems. First when in normal form view I try to add a pdf file to this record. When I look at other records the same pdf file is attached to all records. I want it to be a unique pdf file for each record. Some records may not have a pdf linked. Next problem is I select link and display as Icon. I see a PDF icon but when the form is in normal view I see "Acrobat Document" text and not a PDF Red/White icon. Any idea what I'm doing wrong? Thanks  SignatureFL As a rule, you must put pictures in an UNbound object frame or you pictures will be blank. > I create a Bound Object Frame on my form.

Then you would have to build a table with al your picture names in it. You could then put a combo box filter on your mainform to select the picture desired. If you want to automatically select the correct picture for each item, you may need to use command buttons for that. Sorry, I don't deal that much with pictures. If you don't find a solution, post back and someone who knows more can reply. > ok, thanks. So my approach must be wrong. Any idea how to link a pdf using > an icon on form?
