    I have the same question!! Need to copy an image in another image field. I know we can use a formula field to reach for the image in another table, but I need it to be an image field in both table

    I know this isn't going make copying pictures work, it's more of an observation. When I created a database and then created 3 tables, I stored one picture in each table and then tried to copy using the record() function in a button. I got the same menu in the Image field that Jorge mentions and when I try to save the image it pops up an error dialog. This is the code for the button...

     

    let t := this;
    t.(T1Image := record(Table3,3).T3Image)

     

    I decided to try copying the "image" to a text field and got this... C3/shutterstock_184342850.jpg. So it looks like record() function is actually returning a reference to the image instead of the image itself. The "C3" is a reference to the 3rd table and the 3rd record Id. I guess the Formula field can resolve the reference like Joelle says, but the Image field can't.

    You can display one picture which is uploaded in an Image field in one table to another table using a formula field.

    with the formula:

     

    (select 'table').image
