Need to automatically resize pictures in a 2007 access report?

I have an 2007 access report with the attachment control added. When I open
the report, each image/graphic is displayed in accordance with the size set
in the property sheet. I can set the size in the property sheet but I
actually need the images to show in their original size and they are
different sizes.

I would like to programmatically have the images show in their original size
when I open and print the report.

Can someone please help me with this? I am thinking that somehow I must
program in a "can grow, can shrink" feature for the attachment control in the
background of the report but I don't even know if that's possible.

Did you play with the "picture size mode" property on the attachment field?
I know that changes how the image is shown. I haven't
done much reporting with attachment pictures but perhaps this is the answer.
Just make the attachment control big enough for the largest picture and pick
the right "picture size mode".

Otherwise perhaps code in the format event to dynamically change things as
you go.

This might help and might not,
Mark

Yes, I have tried the picture size mode but that doesn't meet my
requirements. I believe that code in the background may be the answer but I
don't know how to do that.

Thanks for the input.

You could send me an example and I'll take a look. Zip the db. Contact
