Hi.

I have a simple Access database, that contains photos as attachment fields.

When I export my access database to Excel, it shows those fields as "1" or "0" depending on whether the field has a photo attached or not.

Is there any way to export the actual photo into the Excel cells instead?

Thank you
Anton

Will the fill handle fill 1, 2, 3?
Yes! Type 1 in a cell. Hold down Ctrl while you drag the fill handle.
You may get some insight from this thread. It involves saving attachments to a folder. Once done you could include the file reference in the export logic.
There may be other ways --but I'm not familiar with any.
