You should learn to use the #debug stream to print what you are creating
to the console. That is, create the file name you want to open and print
this file name with #debug to see that it's correct. For example:

#declare Filename = concat(whatever);
#debug concat("Filename to read: ", Filename, "\n")

  This way you can check that what you are creating is correct.

  Anyways, your problem is that you are using clock*100. The first calue
clock gets is 0, and 0*100 = 0. That is, you are getting the number "000",
not "001".

  The easiest way of fixing this is to use frame_number instead of clock*100.
frame_number gets consecutive integer numbers starting from 1, and that's
exactly what you want.
