Access 2000 vs 2003 Problem

[Traveler]

Hello all,

I'm trying to load an Access 2003 file into Access 2000 but get the
following error:

Run-Time error '2114':
Microsoft Access doesn't support the format of the file
'C:\MyDB\ProGray.jpg' so it can't load the picture.

The VB Editor highlighted line starting with (Me.Picture):

I noticed that when I installed the Converters and Filters for Access 2000
then either of the lines below will work.

1) What does the Converters and Filters have to do with how Access
interprets the code below?

2) If the Converters and Filters are not installed then how would I load a
picture from code?

Forms!TrainingMatrix.Picture = "C:\MyDB\Pro_Grey.jpg"
Me.Picture = "C:\MyDB\Pro_Grey.jpg"

Thanks in advance folks

Google for ImagesA2K (I cannot find original Web page anymore?),
download it and see how to handle pictures the same way you want to
do.

Also check the format of the file, open the image in Notepad and have
a look for first couple of characters: "ÿØÿà JFIF", maybe it isn't
JPG at all, but image program reads header of the file and open image
making you think it is JPG.
