Use / not \  in the path for example   "~/My Documents/My Pictures/IMG_5597.CR2"

You can also prompt for a file

var dir =  Folder("~/My Documents/My Pictures"); // Root Folder for Images

//Prompt for background

NewImage = dir.openDlg("Select an  Image" , "Select:*.nef;*.cr2;*.crw;*.dcs;*.raf;*.arw;*.orf;*.dng;*.psd;*.tif;*.jpg;*.png;*.bmp");

if( NewImage != undefined){

     open(File(NewImage))

     code

     }

JJ, thats a commented out string… and not any path notation…

[JJMack]

Yes that is a comment  /* coment */

I was making a note the when you replace that comment the user should use a forward slash in path not backward slash that is all.
