You can't scale it with the AddPicture method. &nbsp;You will have to find the object and use the scaling on the object.<br />

This would mean that I would have to add 15 picture objects to the template and resize the one I decide to display within the code. I read online that I can have an OLEobject and load the image from the windows folder to that oleobject, could you tell me if that's possible and how? <br />
<br />
Thanks

I am using the RDC within vb6 which I believe is CR4.6. The templates reports are used as outside reports .rpt
</div>


<div>
RDC was introduced with CR 6 or 7 and is not for use with .Net.<br />
<br />
This might be useful<br />

You see I just want to set the width and height, the reason is because when I scale the image outside of crystal the image and then use the method addpictureobject, the printout has a bad resolution. <br />
I am using very small images and printing on a 200DPI printer, but they look ok when I go ahead and scale down the image in crystal and then print. <br />
<br />
I tried the following and it seemed to almost work except I have got an error &quot;access denied&quot; on first line <br />
<br />
mReport.Sections(ReportSec<wbr />tion).Repo<wbr />rtObjects(<wbr />&quot;Picture1&quot;<wbr />).setOleLo<wbr />cation(str<wbr />ImagePath)<wbr /><br />
mReport.Sections(ReportSec<wbr />tion).Repo<wbr />rtObjects(<wbr />&quot;Picture1&quot;<wbr />).Height = 0.75 <br />
mReport.Sections(ReportSec<wbr />tion).Repo<wbr />rtObjects(<wbr />&quot;Picture1&quot;<wbr />).Width = 1.50 <br />

I tried using a .bmp file that I downloaded off the internet and was not successful <br />
I wonder if it has something to do with licensing, I noticed I saw other people who listed this error on this site but no solution just the persons decided to use a different method altogether. <br />

I have a vb.net program where I use the function AddpictureObject provided by <br />

take a look at the attachment <a href="https://filedb.experts-exchange.com/incoming/2011/05_w20/459096/picforscaling.gif" target="_blank" title="Format editor off clicking picture then format (16 KB)"><img alt="Format editor off clicking picture then format" class="file-block lazyload" style="max-width: 383px;" data-src="https://filedb.experts-exchange.com/incoming/2011/05_w20/459096/picforscaling.gif" /></a><br />
I want to set the scaling or size prior to the picture being added or if I can have a place holder image on the template and then I would refresh with a this new image and it would inhereit the scaling/size. This would work also. <br />

Addpictureobject()

The .NET Framework is not specific to any one programming language; rather, it includes a library of functions that allows developers to rapidly build applications. Several supported languages include C#, VB.NET, C++ or ASP.NET.

Crystal Reports is a business intelligence application from SAP SE. It is used to graphically design data connections and report layouts from a wide range of data sources including Excel spreadsheets, Oracle, SQL Server databases and Access databases, BusinessObjects Enterprise business views, and local file-system information. Report designers can place fields from these sources on the report design surface, and can also deploy them in custom formulas (using either BASIC or Crystal's own syntax), which are then placed on the design surface. Crystal Reports also supports subreports, graphing, and a limited amount of GIS functionality.
