Can a file attachment image thumbnail appear in a report?
It would be nice if there is an option to display a thumbnail version of image file attachments. Is this possible?

yes, it look like my posted answer was missing the <a href part at the beginning.
Here is one that works. I see that when I pasted it in, this forum lost some of my formula. Note that you will need to remove the extra spaces in the h r e f and the and w w w
If you don't want a new window, then you leave out the target = blank.
"<a h r e f=\"h t t ps://mycompany.quickbase.com/up/" & Dbid () & "/a/r" &
[Record ID#] & "/e6/v0\"height=\"1000\" width=\"1250\" target=_blank/> " &
"<img src=\"h t t p s://mycompany.quickbase.com/up/" & Dbid () & "/a/r" &
[Record ID#] & "/e6/v0\" height=\"300\" width=\"375\" target=_blank />"
Also since I made that formula I now realize that you should just specify a width or a height (but not both), and it will automatically scale the missing one. If you specify both, then it forces an aspect ratio distort the original photo.

Hi ,
I use your formulas for creating a field,thank you very much , It shows well in a report, but when I click on the image, the current firefox tab goes from report display to the current record display , and then it opens another tab where it shows the picture.
What I don't like is the current tab behaviour . I don't want to see the view of the current record, I want to stay on the report page.
Do you know how I can accomplish this ?
Thanks,
Mihai
