Hi,

You might want to push the data into a dataset then show the image :

Answer 3

Harry this is not the issue,

The sample you point to uses a datastream to display an image in the viewer background not in the report itself.

If you have the data in SQL stored as SQL Type Image then you can simply insert the table field into the Crystal report and Crystal should do the conversion for you and display the images in the report.

I've just tested this with a dataset with images in and it works fine out of the box.
