I have a hyperlink field in a table called Photo I want the user to be able to fill in this field on form by browsing for the file that holds the picture. The user could type in the path but that is fraught with opportunities for typos, so I would like for the path to automatically populate the Photo field using some kind of "Browse" feature. Once the field is populated then the next user would only need to click on the hyperlink to open the file.
 
Unless you have an old version of access, you may consider the FileDialog object.

Hope This Helps, PH.
