How to display JPG image in Crystal 2016

Hello,

I have parameters and I am attempting to show images based on them. I have created an OLE object and I I have navigated to the format editor, then Picture. Down in graphic, in the formula editor, I have added the URL.

I first used HTTPS and then HTTP, but nothing comes up.

Any recommendations?

Thanks...

I believe the problem is with https. http should work.

If you need https as the source, there is at least one 3rd-party UFL that allows the 'Graphic Location' expression to on-the-fly materialize the image from the https source to a local image file. The function can also resize and reorient the image if needed. The function returns the path to the local file so the 'Graphic Location' expression works as expected.

Thanks Ido.

HTTP worked fine.

I'm surprised that HTTPS doesn't work with 2016 or above.
