I've been having the same problem as everyone else in that .bmps are not showing on forms. I've followed every step given (including the pathname in the field), and the only solution was David's. That is, creating an OLE object field-->right clicking-->insert object-->create new-->bitmap-->paste your image in paint-->exit paint. That works fine, and I realized that in the field it then says "bitmap image". However, if we do it the way you demonstrated, it says "package". I feel whatever is causing that is the culprit. Any ideas?

Strange, bitmaps should show by default, you usually need other software installed for showing other image types
Do other types work for you?
