You can't add it but you can change it. In Crystal Reports XI the picture objects have a "graphic location" formula in their properties. This formula can be change to a filepath, UNC, or URL of an image.

I have an OLE object which is an image. I set it during development as a linked object. During runtime, I change the reference to the object to a file currently on the user's workstation. Everything works fine. However, upon load, is it looking for the location set up at development first/by default? I connect remotely to the client's environment and the client tells me that the reports run faster when I'm connected to their network. I'm wondering if it's because of the linked image file? When I look in the raw rpt file via notepad, I can see a reference to my computer in the rpt file. Thanks
