Picture in Report doesn't appear

Kappe

Hello

I will print the company logo in an report.
So I imported it in the company information table about the company information form.
There it appears. When I run the Zoom a * is shown in the tablefield.

I used the companyinfo.calcfields(picture), hoe it is explained here on the board.
But the picture still doesn't appear.

When I run Message(companyinfo.picture) a message with * appears.

How can I solve this problem?

Just to be sure:
What control are you using in the report? PictureBox?

Actually it should work if you use calcfields.

One idea: check on which data item you're coding "calcfields" is and on which data item you want to shown the picture. Maybe the calcfield is after printing the picture?

Hello

I use a PictureBox.
Also I use the "calcfields" coding in the OnPreDataItem section.
I tried it also in the OnInitReport section.
Other fields out of the company info appear correct in the same section.
Also I change the size of the picture to 50% of the originl one.

Might be a stupid question, but did you initalize the Company Information before?

Kappe

Hello

I tried it with and without initalize.
But as I wrote - the other informations like companyinfo.name etc. appear in the same section.

Best thing in these cases is to have someone else have a look at it. If it is not possible for a colleague to help you can mail it to me, or maybe Nicole can have a look at it.

Mostly if you work at someting to long, you just don't see it anymore. It happens to me all the time

Try to use another printer driver. We already had some strange effects with some printer drivers and NAvision reports

That's what I just wanted to say: I need to see what happens to give any further advice. If you want to you can mail it to me.

And on standard invoice is the logo working??? Can you see the logo in Company Info Form??? If no, problem can be in bmp resolution...

Hello

In the Company Info Form I saw the logo allt the time.
Today I tried the standard invoice. There the logo appears.

So I compared the code.
I changed the name of the global and used get instead of init and it works.

Thank you for your help.

Kappe:

Just so you know why it happens...

When you use the INIT method, Navision creates an empty object in memory that has the structure of a record from the table that your variable is based on. The field values all have their init values, so all boolean fields are set to 'No', unless they are set with an init value of 'Yes'. So, by using the INIT method on the Company Information table, it created a new empty record, it did not retrieve the existing information.

The GET method is used to retrieve one existing record from the database into the variable that you are using.

Perhaps it is a stupid comment, but still...
sometimes it can be another problem, like the picture itself..

I hope you solve it
