[AccessD] Relative path for images

I take this one step further.
I store the name of the image file in a table.  That way I don't have to worry about changing the code to replace the image - all I do is change the field in the table.

I use:
        Images.Picture = Application.CurrentProject.Path & "\images\" & GraphicFile

Images is the name of the image container.

Sorry Arthur, that should have been 

currentproject.Path

Subject: [AccessD] Relative path for images

Within my app's directory is a directory called Images, which stores (gasp)
images used by the app, such as logos. I'd like to make the references to
this directory relative to the home directory but I can't make it work. I've
tried various syntaxes without success (i.e. "Images\logo.jpg" and
"..\Images\logo.jpg"). Is there a way to do this?


TIA
Arthur
