I'm not sure but ...
IS THIS VB6 ???????????

nice catch, got in a hurry and have been used to c# for a bit

you do need to add a reference to scrrun.dll

If Not (oFile.FileExists(basePath & filename + ext)) Then
filename = "mypic" + ext
End If

Dim oFile As New Scripting.FileSystemObject

when running it says " compile error: user -defined type not defined
