Note: Graphics files aren’t stored in your data file
Graphics files aren’t stored in your data file. They’re stored in the Graphics folder in the directory where your data file is located. If the graphic you link to an item or card record in the Picture Information window isn’t already located in the Graphics folder, a copy of the graphics file you select is placed in the Graphics folder. If you move your data file, you must move the Graphics folder to the same location if you want to display graphics in the Item Information window or Card Information window.
