This works in the more recent version of Crystal Reports (i'm using XI R2)

• From the Insert Tools toolbar select Insert Picture and insert any old picture in your report.
• Right click on the image and select Format Graphic
• On the Picture tab select the 'formular button' next to Graphic Location
• From the Formula Workshop you should be able to select the database column that contains your file path.

When you preview the report it should dynamicly load the images for each record.

Edit I've found this link, it maybe useful.

Don't use physical paths with CR directly. Store your image in a datatable or in a binary field of your database and show that.

Here is a code project solution that uses datatables:

It's simple, C# and a little old, but I think you get the trick.
