The Solution Rating System

With so many solutions, how can you tell which solutions are most likely to help you and which ones are not? To provide you with a tool to use, we rate our solutions based on various elements that most accurately determine if a solution is a quality solution. To explain what factors affect the solution rating, here are the elements we take into consideration when formulating our solution rating.

The Grade of the Solution
The Zone Rank of the Expert Providing the Solution
The Number of Author and Expert Comments
The Number of Experts Contributing
The Feedback of the Community

Your Input Matters
Because of the way the system is set up, the most important variable in this equation is you. As a member of Experts Exchange, you are able to cast your vote on the quality of the solutions in regard to how complete, accurate, helpful and easy to understand each solution is. When you provide your feedback, each rating is adjusted accordingly. So, if you see a solution that has a poor rating that you think is a good solution, let us know by rating it. As you do, the rating will be adjusted and will become more accurate for other members of our site.

Working with images from a network

Asked by Mia143 in Microsoft Access Database, Tivoli Storage Manager

Hi, I have an Access 2002 database that I am trying to add an Image Library to. The images are jpg's, pdf's or gif's...no bmp's. I do not want to store them in my database, I simply want to give the user access to the images that are already stored on our company's network drive and the ability to see the image and possibly print the image.

As background info, I have a table that houses specific information about the image such as a response code field. The image is named as the response code - Description. (i.e. - my table might have the response code field as being "T81" and the image on the network is called "T81 - Something Something".

I'm thinking that there are two ways to go about this...one - only displaying the images of the response codes that exist on the other table (which is very limiting and many images may not exist on the network for these) or just keeping my Image Library as it's own little application on my database in which it displays each image on the network, which can get very large (at least 200 images there now). I think for this to work, I would have to be able to cut down the title of the image based on just the response code part of the naming convention and allow users to search based on that response code.

Which would be the best way to go and should I use the linked image object or the OLE object?
