Check Open Databases wizard message

Thanks Jim,
I went through and double-clicked every field in the data sheet...the only
field which would not open was a field named Image which was a picture
field. When I double clicked in that field it remained black and would not
'open.' When I tried to do a Find/Select and designated the search to be
that field greater than blank, I got a message that I could not use Picture
column in an equation. None of the fields opened at a size greater than (or
even as tall as) my (30-inch) screen.

I have encountered no problems with this database since its creation in
2004, so this is not anything which I care about...just curious what the
message meant...
