Problem displaying images in Access 2007

I’m hoping someone can help throw some light on a problem I have displaying images in an Access 2007 form.

The images (jpg files) are not stored in the database, only the full file name.

The images are loaded into the text box using
Me.txtPhoto.Picture = Me.txtFileName

This works for most images, but not all. The non displaying image files are not corrupted – they open OK in Windows Photo Viewer. It is not a file size issue as other images larger than the problem ones will display.

I’d be grateful for any comment or suggestion about this.

I had a problem with Access 2007 displaying images on a main form as well as a subform.
The control used was an image control with the control name set to the path and filename, so there is no need to set the .picture.
I then put a text box behind the image control and it appears every time,weird but it works.

Thanks for the steer. I’ll try it and let you know the outcome. But it won’t be for a couple of weeks because I’ve just arrived in Surfers Paradise to thaw out.
