Showing image(coming from database) dynamically in crystal report using ImagePath C#

Question

I store image path in database like this: UploadedImage/FabricImage/11115.JPG.

I want to show them dynamically in a crystal report. Can anyone help me?

Answer 1

Use a conditional formula to dynamically change the location of a report’s image.

1. Add an image to the report: -> Insert -> Picture
   This image will act as a placeholder.
   Ensure that the placeholder is the same size as the one that will be dynamically loaded, otherwise the image will be scaled.
2. Change the image’s Graphic Location:
   • right click image
   • select Format Graphic…
   • select Picture tab
   • click the conditional-formula button (looks like x+2)
   • set the formula’s text to the name of the formula or parameter field that will contain the image’s URL
   • save the formula and click the OK button
   • Save the report
