An image's "Text" property is  binary data that comprises the image.  
The problem arises because, until one reads the Dictionary, one might 
easily assume an image's Text property contains text, just like a 
field.

So, just as one might...

	get URL (("file:"&textFileName))
	put it into field "Main Text"

one should be able to (untested)

	get URL (("binfile:"&imageFileName))
	put it into image "Main Image"
