Default multi-page gif image

Hi using Access 2003 image control to display .tiff files that can contain
multiple page documents. When these files contain a single page document the
image control has no problem displaying the document. However, when the .tiff
is for a multiple page document an error is triggered that the file is too
big.

How can I display .tiff files that may contain multiple page documents?

Any ideas or suggestions appreciated :-)

Many thanks,
Jonathan

As you have discovered, the standard Image control does not support
multipage TIFF files. Your options a

1) Use an Unbound OLE Frame control. At runtime, load the Image into the
control. Your system with require an application registered for the TIFF
file type that can display multipage TIFF files.

2) Use an ActiveX control such as the MS MODI ActiveX control(free) or the
DBPix control( not free).
