I want to place the logo of our company onto the invoice (Nr 206)

I tried to use the object designer and then the sections view. But how can I add an image?

Greetings Gecko

    If the logo is stored in an external file, you could use an Image control. Preferably, you should store the graphic in a BLOB field in a table (e.g. Company Information?), and use a Picture control.

    Object Designer is the right thing. In the top you see a button with a sledge. Push it. (Menu: View, Toolbox). Choose the right of the two symbols with the boat ('Picture Box') and make the box the way you want. Then go to the properties of this box and set the "SourceExpr" to "CompanyInfo.Picture".

    Then you have to add a little code to the "Sales Header"-DataItem. In the third line of the "OnAfterGetRecord"-Trigger you see: 
    CompanyInfo.GET;
    .
    After that put this line: 
    CompanyInfo.CALCFIELDS(Picture);

    Now it should work! (You have to store the picture in the "Company Information", of course.)

    Could you please explain, how to show a external file with an image control? As far as I can remember you can only display a bitmap that is integrated in the software. Or am I of the mark?
