I am not sure about Crystal 8, but this works in Crystal 11 so try and work out something similar.

1) Insert a picture in your report. You have to start with some picture, it doesn't matter which one.

2)Right click on the picture and choose Format Graphic from the popup Format menu.

3) Click the picture tab in the Format Editor dialog.

4) Click the Graphic Location formula button at the bottom of that page.

5) Drag and drop your parameter into the formula section. Your graphic location formula should just contain the parameter field.

6) Save it.

7) Now when you pass your parameter, you should not enclose it in quotes: that will not compute. Just pass the path to the image and the image name, such as c:\pics\cat.bmp.

That should do with some alterations here and there.
