Report Image

Fisherman

Can anyone tell me what the easiest way to add an image to a report is? I have put an image control on the form, and I'm trying to set the image to a file (having some issues here - the file is > 32K), but my question is this - Does Navision embed the image once I add it, or do I need to put it in a relative directory to Navision? Is there a BLOB field that can be used as opposed to a file path for the image?

best is to use a blob for this. you can use for example the picture in the sompanyinfo table.

remember to do a calcfields before printing.

A: yes

Q: Is there a BLOB field that can be used as opposed to a file path for the image?
A: yes. You need to create a field in a table. Company information? It has allready a picture field. Take a look how it's done on the table and also on the form. on how to add it to report, there are many threads on this on mibuso.

Mark -

Can you offer any more advice here? I've worked with BLOBs and pictures before, but it's all been in .Net. I'm a noob with NAV programming.

Are there any examples on how to do this?

the easiest way is probably to simply search for the word "LOGO"

lots of questions about how to add a company logo to a report.

Or like ara3n wrote: check the Company Information. There is already a bitmap in it, and all the code you need to work with it. You just have to copy the code.
