Common dialog in Access VBA

I'm using a Microsoft Access 2000 database where I among others store picture files in BLOB fields. I have no problems to write a standalone application in VB or VC++ that can add new picture files to the DB, but I have been looking for a way to do it from within Access itself. I have however not succeeded. If I try to use the Common Dialog I get a message that complains about some license issues. Is there some other way?
 
Use the API call, as explained here:

The common dialog is prone to bugs, version problems, and the license issues
you found.
