Hello everyone . I have found this excellent picture manipulating access form . It has all the functions i would like to achieve . The problem is I can't get it to load a picture ! . I am fairly new to vba . I have a idea why i can't load the pictures . It is built to load pictures from a pre determined folder and using "infraview" ? I would love and very much need to load the pictures from my window explorer . From my documents etc . Can any of you experts maybe manipulate and change the VBA code to open pictures from My windows explorer or my Documents ? I am enclosing 2 forms . They both are very similar and derived from the same source program . I would like to make the changes to the "DB1 " db . I am so new to this stuff and I really could use some Help. Thank you in advanced .
Eric Maxfield .

This should get your started: Call the standard Windows File Open/Save dialog box (http://access.mvps.org/access/api/api0001.htm)
