Thank Jimmy for the response.

Actually, I am working on a browser InfoPath 2007 form. May I know what you mean by InfoPath 2007 client forms can display images because I would like to hear how to show the attachment image after someone have attached a image into the form.

Thanks ErnestoM for the response.

Actually, what I mean is that for example, a user have attached a JPG file and click save to save the InfoPath form. The next time, when the user open the form, the attachment will show the JPG file that he/she attached previous instead of the filename of the file being displayed.

If I am not wrong, you are referring to the following picture that you can set the option "Show file placeholder" or "Specify default file", which is not what I am looking for.

InfoPath 2007 client forms can display images, but browser forms cannot. In 2010, both client and browser forms can use picture controls. Are you working with a browser form?

I thought the picture control has a setting for either a link or to show the image. Could it be that you've selected the control property to display the link only? Perhaps it's just a matter of changing the control properties to display the image instead.

I have InfoPath 2007 form where end-user only upload attachment - JPG file. May I know what should I do in order to make the JPG file display on the infopath form itself?

This is because currently the infopath display a link to the attachment JPG file rather than letting end-user to view the JPG file together with the rest of the contents inside the InfoPath form.
