Loading Images(*.bmp,*.jpg and Etc.) from database

Hi all .
I'm using fastreports from 2 years ago up to now .
I want to retrive image data from a database system like SQL Server 2000 or Microsoft Access .
I put a TfrxPictureView object to my report and connect it to my database - field [For example , Northwind DB (MS Access OR MS SQL Server 2000) - Categories (The Table) - Picture (The Image Field)] , but the picture (*.bmp , *.jpg or ...) that I stored them in my database , are not shown .
Now , please let me know what can I do for my problem .
I have some employment data and I want to print the employee picture to his/her status report form .
Thanks .

    What format has picture field (maybe it's OLE)?
    Can you save two or three records from your database and attach here?

    Dear DEN ,
    The Pictures Are in BMP format . (What about JPG OR Gif OR ... formats?)

    Can you save two or three records from your database and attach it here or send it to my email den@fast-report.com?

    Dear DEN ,
    If you have SQL Server 2000 OR MS Access (2003) , you can find Northwind database and then you can use CATEGORIES table . There is PICTURE field in this table , then you can store a BMP file (OR JPG) on it , and try what I want to do .
    (I can not attach a part of my data)
    I want to create a report (With fast report and Delphi) from a similar table that it has EmployeeName , EmployeePosition , EmployeePicture and Etc. ...

    I want to design a report like this :

    Name:
    Position : |
    Picture ->



    I will send to you a sample picture to your email .

    I Think that U and fast reports can not help me , I can not show pictures stored on my database systems , in the reports designed with Fast Report Studio and Fast Report 3 Professional Component (Delphi 7) and it is not good for the FAST REPORT team . I'm your customer and I wish that U help me very soon .
    Best regards .

    If this is true , and fast report team has no solution for my simple problem , please let me know as soon as possible . ;) ;) ;) ;)

    I have the same problem. How did you solve this?

    OK .
    The images stored in MS SQL Server and MS Access ARE NOT standard bitmaps .
    ;) ;)
    Yes , that's it , store an image (bmp or jpg) in your database .
    Then use fast report , it will work .
    I designed a test database with two image fields , one of them in BMP format and another on in JPG format , then enter data to this database and then test the FAST REPORTS on it .
    IT WORKED . ;) ;)

Rich Text Editor. To edit a paragraph's style, hit tab to get to the paragraph menu. From there you will be able to pick one style. Nothing defaults to paragraph. An inline formatting menu will show up when you select text. Hit tab to get into that menu. Some elements, such as rich link embeds, images, loading indicators, and error messages may get inserted into the editor. You may navigate to these using the arrow keys inside of the editor and delete them with the delete or backspace key.
