strImagePath is passed to the function. From wherever you produce that
value, do it in a loop and keep passing them until exhausted for that parent
record.

Thanks S.Clark. I will try and figure out how to get a loop in there, but if
you can provide me with the proper code...it will save me hours of research.

Below is my code so far....not sure what or where the code needs to be to
create the loop for each record. Please help!
Option Compare Database
Option Explicit
Public Function DisplayImage(ctlImageControl As Control, strImagePath As
Variant) As String
On Error GoTo Err_DisplayImage
Dim strResult As String
Dim strDatabasePath As String
Dim intSlashLocation As Integer
With ctlImageControl
If IsNull(strImagePath) Then
.Visible = False
strResult = "No image name specified."
Else
If InStr(1, strImagePath, "\") = 0 Then
' Path is relative
strDatabasePath = CurrentProject.FullName
intSlashLocation = InStrRev(strDatabasePath, "\",
Len(strDatabasePath))
strDatabasePath = Left(strDatabasePath, intSlashLocation)
strImagePath = strDatabasePath & strImagePath
End If
.Visible = True
.Picture = strImagePath
strResult = "Image found and displayed."
End If
End With
Exit_DisplayImage:
DisplayImage = strResult
Exit Function
Err_DisplayImage:
Select Case Err.Number
Case 2220 ' Can't find the picture.
ctlImageControl.Visible = False
strResult = "Can't find image in the specified name."
Resume Exit_DisplayImage:
Case Else ' Some other error.
MsgBox Err.Number & " " & Err.Description
strResult = "An error occurred displaying image."
Resume Exit_DisplayImage:
End Select
End Function
