Hi William: So what does CurrentPath resolve to?... "v:\JISWORKING\TMS\" You may have to pass the syntax through a variable like: strCurrentPath = trim(CurrentProject.Path & "MBCC_HallC_Spring_001a.mdp") MetaDraw0.LoadPicture strCurrentPath This usually solves the problem. Also noted is you have curved brackets around the name in the first version which may indicate a return value from the MetaDraw0 class which may confuse the simple thing...?
