pictures in customer screen

I would like to attach/tie-in either customer store images, business cards or credit application forms to the customer screen. What is the best way to achieve this. If possible I would like to see a thumbnail on the customer screen and if i click on it, it could enlarge or pop open in an external window eg windows explorer.

Also is there any way of having the customer statistics (dos style) visible on the front page of customer screen without having click on statistics manually every time.

How can I also stop capital to automatically calculate settlement discount when entering payments. I want to do this manually.
Thanks

1. There is an example in the help documentation on how to do this. Read the topic: "Screen Builder Script Creation". To launch use this syntax:

If Mode == 11
If PicNumber == 1
Shell("explorer", "myform.htm")
Endif
Endif

Although you should also specify the path where "myform.htm" is found as part of the command.

2. It can be done but it is a little technical at the moment. These fields will be available as dictionary entries you can choose from in a future release of CAPITAL.

3. Take off the Early Settlement discount percentage and enter the discount as a separate transaction. Otherwise you need to change the Early Settlement value before you enter your transaction.
