I have a problem with this macro, I has been working for years, It inserts
pictures from a directory called import to a blank powerpoint. but the user
changed OS to XP home. And it stopped working
I thought this is an easy one just create "C:\My Documents\my
pictures\import\" as the bin to drop the picture files in as it was, and It
should work.
It now works on my machine XP pro. Office 2000. But not on the users XP
home Office 97.
The macro does not like this line:

.FileName = "*.*"

If I put the file name in of one file then it works for that file

As I say this is working fine on my machine, Any Ideas?

Many Thanks

Paul
