### Convert Picture Object command

Use the Convert Picture Object command to convert the selected picture object.

When you use the OLE Object command on the Insert menu to place a picture in a report, the picture can be treated as either an embedded or a linked object.

When you use the Picture command on the Insert menu to insert a picture into the report, the Report Designer converts the picture into a static object.

Static objects do not support editing. To edit a static object, it has to be converted into an editable type of object using the Convert Picture Object command on the Edit menu.
