Just a thought. Most filenames and paths do not have spaces after the dot or .

Also, if you are getting a syntax error in your query, it helps to print out the value of the query after you have concatenated in the variable text part.

I'm gonna guess Line 47 - the space between the period and the backslash. Syntax errors involving things like periods are tricky to run down at the best of times simply because the character itself is small and seems insignificant, so your brain tends to skip over it as unimportant. It takes awhile to train yourself out of that.
