Re: Selecting images depending on field value

[Jerry Thomas[MSFT]]

If you have a static list, try this.
Put a dropdown listbox in your form. Set the Value = the path to the image,
and the Display as a friendly name.
Switch the Task Pane to the Data Source view. Right click on the field for
the drop down list, select more.., scroll to the bottom and select Picture.

Now when the user selects something from the dropdown, that image will be
displayed.

> Hi guys - My client is yet again asking for something a little different:
I'm looking to select an image from a sharepoint list depending on the value
the users selects from a drop down when they fill out the form. The image
will then be inserted into a picture box or rich text box and submitted so
that the next time a user opens the form the image will be visible.
> I figure I can retrieve and filter the list of filenames representing the
images by setting the list as a secondary data source, but how to take that
image and write it to the node I have set up (ideally with the ability to
resize)....Does anyone know the best way to do this?
