    Default linking images to forms

    Hi All,
    I have a large directory of JPGs that I have linked to
    appropriate items in my Access database by adding a
    hyperlink field to my table that specifies the jpg path.
    I can display the hyperlink on my form, click the
    hyperlink, and view the jpg in IE. However, what I would
    really like to do is to have the correct image display on
    each form for each item in an unbound or bound control.

    How can I do that without actually embedding the images
    themselves in the db?

    Thanks!
