How to reach and show a picture which is inside a Seagate Gigabit Ethernet BlackArmor Disk with vb6

Actually i have no idea how this kinda disks works. Its the first time i deal with such disk. I putted some pictures in a folder named as oldpics and with a vb code i wanna reach it but some how i just cant find the picture inside it and its imposible cause i know that the picture is in that folder.

'This A_PicRoad is = "\\198.162.1.20\oldpics\" which is exist for sure
If mdiMain.fsoexist.FileExists(mdiMain.A_PicRoad & stock & ".jpg") Then

    pic1.Picture = LoadPicture(mdiMain.A_PicRoad & stock & ".jpg")

    Set img = New ImageFile
    img.LoadFile mdiMain.A_PicRoad & stok & ".jpg" 

End If
'But somehow cant find the picture and leaving this if statement without processing anything..

so what could be causing that?

Edit: I just remember that at first i must enter a username and pass while reaching \\198.162.1.20\ after that i can reach \\198.162.1.20\oldpics\..

Solution

If it's a normal SMB network share, then you must use a full valued UNC path (Note the preceding \\)

\\198.162.1.20\oldpics\

You can also map a drive and access it via a drive letter.
