I've tried the drag and drop technique on a Picture box either .jpg or .bmp but the image doesn't still load. How can I fix this problem? I'm using MS ACCESS 2013.

That was the screenshot of loading the picture by trying to drag and drop the .jpg and .bmp on an ole object and an icon appears instead of an actual photo. How to solve that problem? :)

It is recommended that you do NOT use the OLE type object. See the Evil Access Stuff.
For a better way check out the Images video.
Yeah, there's a big red "Important Notice" section on the course page. Read that.

I tried the other technique which is to use an image control and Bind it to a field with a short text data type and store the path and file name on it. Yeah it works. Thank you guys, it was a big help :)
You're very welcome and always be sure to read the notes that go on the bottom of the class pages. There aren't a lot of changes that need to be made to my older videos but the way that images are handled is definitely one of them.
