Hi all,

I have an access acce that i run on two different machines, one of which is in windows 10 /Office 2016, the other one is in Windows 10 / Office 2010. My Acces prints out perfectly on the 2010 version of Access and no image is coming our on the 2016 version on Office (the same Accde was printing perfectly as i had Access 2013 before the weekend) now no image is coming out on the print.

If I look on screen at the report, pictures are there, as soon as I get onto the print preview, images are gone !

This is probably a new feature of access 2016 that I am not aware of !

Can anybody help me ?

Thanks in advance

Marc

Patrick, I fully understand the affect this has had. And I couldn't agree more that a way of going back should have been made available. But it doesn't really matter how specific the issue is, a fix needed to be found, tested and then implemented within the rollout cycle. As I understand it a potential fix was identified late in October. And the testing made it miss the November cycle. Hence the December release.

    This is a HUGE problem for us too.  I run a software company that uses Access and the front end application for SharePoint linked tables.  It has been working great for several years, but now our clients that are upgrading to Office 2016 cannot see the photos that should be embedded and displayed the the PDFs that the app creates from reports.

    Microsoft Access Team: please fix this!

    Hi Tom

    This is now pending since more than 5 weeks. Do you know if there is an update. I have customers complaining on a solution I have provided when they switched to access 2016 being unable to print out their invoices with their logo on it.

    Kind regards

    Gianni,

    It has been mentioned a few times that a fix is scheduled for release with the December updates.

    I was only affect by this for about 4 hours as I used a Access expert to rewrite my invoices so that they used embedded images - it cost me less than $500.00 and all is well - even if MS does not fix the simple linked image problem...  I will be happy to offer assistance to anyone that can not wait for the 'fix' in December. ******@topgrad.com
