## Description

AutoDisplay is a Boolean property which indicates if the graphic content for the control is automatically displayed when values become available in the linked dataset. AutoDisplay is used in the implementation of the DataChange method to determine if LoadPicture is called.

Setting the property to True calls the LoadPicture method to retrieve the graphic content from the field in DataField.

The default value for the property is True.
