Hi Cabby

Hyperlinks are always processed by the default browser. Instead you might
like to try the code at http://www.mvps.org/access/api/api0018.htm. It will
use the Windows Explorer shell to launch the application associated with the
given file - in your case the default picture viewer.

Good Luck!
