I've got a couple of references checked which you may not have although it
should fail to compile without them?
Windows Script Host Object Model
VBA Extensibility 5.3
OLE Automation
Office 9.0 Object Library
DAO 3.6 Object Library
Access 9.0 Object Library
VB for A
Is varPicturePath returning the right value?
It's also set up to retrieve only files with .jpg extension.
.FileName = "*.jpg"
