I have an Access 2003 application which needs to record signatures and then
show them on a report. Whilst I believe I am successfully capturing an INK
signature and storing it in a db record, I can not subsequently display the
signature on a report.

I am capturing the signature on a form in an INK enabled control. For
testing I have introduced extra fields in the underlying table to store the
images (one for each of the INK.SAVE formats - 0 to 3) and can see data being
added to the respective fields which seems consistent with examples elsewhere
(ie isf and gif images).

However, to date I have not been able to subsequently display this data
directly on a report (I have been able to export the gif images to a file
then re-import and display the signature but this is a very crude solution
which is also very slow). All code is written in VBA.

Has anyone got some example VBA code to enable the displayed INK signatures
to be added to a report (via a query). I have looked through .net examples
that are currently on the web (a of references seem to point to deleted
articles) and tried to relate to VBA but am obviously missing something as
everything I try just gives a blank field where a signature should appear.

Any help or ideas would be much appreciated.
