Why are you using a bmp? Bmps are huge. Why not convert the bmp to a gif
or jpeg before you add it to the database? Where are you putting it? In you
forms? Reports? How are you adding it?

Subject: [mso] Access 97 & 2000
Hi Team,
I tried to add a logo both as a bmp or a jpeg to a database and the size of
the file grew by 10megs!!!!. The file size was 75k as a jpeg and 4.5 megs as
a bmp.. I tried linking and importing. Result was similar in that the
database grew alarmingly.
Any ideas on how to do it right? It happened using both versions of Access
and on machines running Win 95 and Win 2000 Pro
TIA
Cheers
Stephen Doyle
