Picture in a pop up?

Does anyone know if you can put a picture in a Navision pop up? When you get an error or a warning, can a bmp be included in the pop up screen?

you can do it with a automation (dll).

Could you tell us why you need this?

Sure I can tell you! I'd like to put a small image within a warning to assist the end user with fixing a problem.

I know a picture is worth a 1K words, but wouldn't it be easier to say that in words?

Indeed, an accurate description would work; however, this is in a warehouse with multiple users looking at one workstation and they don't all speak the same language. This is where the picture idea comes in.

you could also do it without using COM. You could run the code in IF CODEUNIT.RUN and use getlastError and display a form with different pictures.

I think this is easily the best solution. No custom .NET development, very little customization to the system. Seems easy to maintain a mapping between pictures and errors.
