Crystal Reports 8.5

i'm using CR 8.5 as my report generator...the problem is i cant seem to change the pictures on my crystal report...

ive tried this - > picture1.setolelocation "c:\image1.jpg"

it returned an error -> permission denied!!
ive also tried loading it as a picture like loadpicture("c:\image1.jpg") and it still made the same error...


please please... i need this real bad...please do reply please?



                          

since no one has replied to my problem...i solved it my self....
not bad for hours of work...hehehe

-------------------------------------------
i first created a field for storing the path of my images in my database....then i opened my crystal report form and inserted the field to the crystal report....i then insert an OLE picture or just a plain picture....i arranged the field so that it will be at the back of my picture and it will not show during printing....

Code.....
in the section were my field and my picture is placed...i included the following

Private Sub Section8_Format(ByVal pFormattingInfo As Object)
Dim sa As StdPicture
Set sa = LoadPicture(App.Path & "\" & Trim(Field16.Value) & ".jpg")
Set Picture1.FormattedPicture = sa
End Sub

''''note....you dont need to follow my section8 since you can put your objects in any part of the crystal report...

hope this works.....

I have CR9 standalone and VB.NET

I have stored a filepath in an Access DB and I am trying to use the StdPicture, but when I try to use the DIM sa AS, I do not get StdPicture as an option.  What do I need to do to get this option to show up in VB.NET?

hey i got your problem now...this is probably the solution...

--->>> open this menu -> project> references then check if the "OLE Automation" is selected okay? try it because when i removed the option the stdpicture did not appear...its kinda really difficult to find because it contains lists of references...so be patient...if you cant find it...then click browse and locate the file "stdole2.tlb"  okay? it should now appear...

Is this for VB.NET or VB6....I could not find anything in VB.NET for 'OLE Automation'

Dear,

         Everything seems to be correct. But can anybody please tell me how can i add these all code in to crystal reports because i am unable to find any event for section format. I am using VB.NET and i am not able to find a solution how to add event handler for section_format.

Please guide me.

Thanks.
