i'm using office 2003 and trying to paste an image from a file. The
actual image name is constant, "theone.jpg" but the actual subfolder
is different and is something like "c:\documents\data\232 - 123 Sesame
St\pictures\." The name of the subfolder "232 - 123 Sesame St" is
variable. I want to be able to insert the picture using a wild card
such as "c:\documents\data\232 * \pictures\" but that returns in
error. What is the correct way to insert a wild card in the file path?
Here is the code I have so far that isn't working:
Sub Macro1()
Dim mypath As String
Dim filename As String
Dim fullpath As String
filename = "theone.jpg"
mypath = "c:\documents\data\232 * \pictures\"
MsgBox (mypath)
Selection.InlineShapes.AddPicture (mypath & filename)
End Sub
