Dynamic Image Generation (Reports)

Images stored in picture type database fields or images from disk can now be added dynamically to report templates. For example, you may wish to include your customer's logo or the designer's avatar on a report.

These images are controlled by adding a text entity with a special format, some examples of which include:

  • [ImageFile("[Script("<VBScript>Result = "D:\image1.jpg"")]")] - Loads an image directly from disk
  • [CUSTOMER.CS_PICT] - Loads an image from from a picture type field in the CUSTOMER table
  • [ImageFile("[CUSTOMER.CS_FILE]")] - Loads an image based on a file path held in the CUSTOMER table
