On-click event on an unbound control in MS Access - ms-access

Question

I am trying to modify a sample by Roggers here for my project to browse multiple images in MS Access form.
But, I would like to know how I can add an on-click event for the image control to open a details form.
The code behind the form is as follows:
Private Sub P_FillControls()
On Error GoTo ErrTrap
Dim Cnt As Long
Cnt = 1
Do Until (Cnt > BlockSize Or rst.EOF)
P_SetValues Cnt
Cnt = Cnt + 1
rst.MoveNext
Loop
If Cnt <= BlockSize Then
For Cnt = Cnt To BlockSize
P_SetNulls Cnt
Next
End If
ExitPoint:
On Error GoTo 0
Exit Sub
ErrTrap:
MsgBox Err.Number & " - " & Err.Description
Resume ExitPoint
End Sub
Private Sub P_SetValues(Cnt As Long)
On Error GoTo ErrTrap
If RecCount > 0 Then
Me("Rn_" & Format(Cnt, "00")).Caption = (rst.AbsolutePosition + 1)
Else
Me("Rn_" & Format(Cnt, "00")).Caption = ""
End If
Me("Lb_" & Format(Cnt, "00")).Caption = Nz(rst.Fields("ImageName"), "")
Me("Im_" & Format(Cnt, "00")).Picture = Nz(rst.Fields("ImageFile"), "")
Me("ID_" & Format(Cnt, "00")) = rst.Fields("ImageFile")
' Note - For no caption, dot is used in lieu of
' zero length string, so as to prevent the
' label from disappearing
ExitPoint:
On Error GoTo 0
Exit Sub
ErrTrap:
MsgBox Err.Number & " - " & Err.Description
Resume ExitPoint
End Sub
Private Sub P_SetNulls(Cnt As Long)
On Error GoTo ErrTrap
Me("Rn_" & Format(Cnt, "00")).Caption = "."
Me("Lb_" & Format(Cnt, "00")).Caption = "."
Me("Im_" & Format(Cnt, "00")).Picture = "."
Me("ID_" & Format(Cnt, "00")) = Null
' Note - For no caption, dot is used in lieu of
' zero length string, so as to prevent the
' label from disappearing
ExitPoint:
On Error GoTo 0
Exit Sub
ErrTrap:
MsgBox Err.Number & " - " & Err.Description
Resume ExitPoint
End Sub
Public Sub P_Initialize()
On Error Resume Next
RecCount = 0 ' Default
Me.LbNoImage.Visible = False
' Remove any existing instance of the recordset
If Not rst Is Nothing Then
rst.Close
Set rst = Nothing
End If
' This recordset will finally get closed in form's
' close event.
Set rst = CurrentDb.OpenRecordset("Q_ImageNormalSort")
' Set rst = CurrentDb.OpenRecordset("Q_Dynamic_Query")
If rst.EOF And rst.BOF Then
' There are no records
P_FillControls
Me.LbNoImage.Visible = True
P_SetStatusNavBtns
Me.CmdAdd.SetFocus
Exit Sub
End If
rst.MoveLast
RecCount = rst.RecordCount
LastID = rst.Fields("ImageFile")
rst.MoveFirst
FirstID = rst.Fields("ImageFile")
' First Load (signified by step size argument = 0)
P_Next 0
Me.LbRecMsg.Caption = "Of " & RecCount
On Error GoTo 0
End Sub
In the sample, "Im_" is the control that holds the image on the form.
I will appreciate your help.

Put the following Sub in your code somewhere at the bottom:
Function OpenMyForm(strFormName As String)
DoCmd.OpenForm strFormName
End Function
Stick this in your code below where you set the image:
Me("Im_" & Format(Cnt, "00")).OnClick = "=OpenMyForm('F_Details')"
