Is it possible to load an *.ico file onto a PictureBox ? I know I can use : PictureBox1.Image = System.Drawing.Image.FromFile("C:MyImage.jpg") but I'd like to use an icon . I have tried some other methods that read "Icon" , but I failed . Up to now the only thing I have thought is converting the file format form *.ico to *.jpg , but I think that's ridiculous ...

I currently have 4 images that I need to load into a picture box at different times, it works fine for me but if I send it to a friend it wont work because the file path is different. I use this at the moment:
If filmType = "Jumper" Then
img = "E:TheatreBookinginimages"
picFilms.Load(img)
lblFilmInfo.Text = ("A genetic anomaly allows a young man to teleport himself anywhere.")
lblFilmInfoTwo.Text = ("This gift leads him into a war that has existed for centuries.")
End If
I am trying to 1) write code in VB2010 that will get a JPG image from a Access Database field and write the image to a PictureBox 2) write code which will write a JPG file to an Access Database field. I have already sucessfully coded this in VB6, without fully understanding what I was doing.
Browsing the various forum's I have come across a few discussions on this subject, but due to my complete amerture status I don't seem to be able to follow the logic.
Below is the VB6 code
Writing JPG file to DataBase:
Dim bytBlob() As Byte

i'm doing a simple form tat could add picturebox during runtime and i could add several picture into it.

I have a picturebox and the image will be from the web

Is it possible to load an image into a picturebox when that picture box is clicked? What would the syntax look like? It's an image that I already dropped onto the form that I would like to load into that picturebox.
View 1 Repliesi know this is probally a really simple question but i have looked through my book and all my notes and googeled and couldn't find a answer that suites my needs.baisicly i have a combobox that gets loaded on form_load, what i want to do is load the appropriate picture into a picturebox when someone selects a item from the combobox. what i cant figure out is how to get the picture into the combobox using code. all the images are saved in my debug folder for the program. picturebox.image = picture.png this is what i asumed it would be but have tried with parenthises, quotes and both and it dosent work.
View 7 RepliesI'm new in the vb.net world. The question I have is how to display an image which is in a access data base in a picturebox in visual basic(2010).
View 7 RepliesI want to make a program similar to this one: [URL]. I already have the ListBox ready. But how do I load the images?
The image name works like this:
-File1.package
-File1A.jpg
-File1B.jpg
So the .package is removed and A.jpg or B.jpg is added.
I am trying to get a picture box (that has a loading image .gif) to be visible while the program reads a text file and change visible to false when all the information in the file.txt is displayed in the textbox.
Here is my
Private Sub Button1_Click(sender As System.Object, e As System.EventArgs) Handles Button1.Click
PictureBox1.Visible = True

I have on a simple VB form:Label1Picturebox1FilesysytemwatcherThe watcher watches the camera but only the first picture load after that it gets an exeption and the program stops. I like to continu see what I shoot, but don't want to push buttons on the laptop after each shot. That reason the the watcher is placed. The time between shoot is enough for thw display being completed. The code:
Private MyImage As Bitmap
Private Sub FileSystemWatcher1_Created(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.IO.FileSystemEventArgs) Handles FileSystemWatcher1.Created

I have a picture box on my form along with a combo box with a number of different options. So anyway when a combo box item is selected I want it to look in the dataset for the selected item's row and pick out the image to load and then using an IF statement it sets the image (or should).
Dim RaceImg As String = DS.Tables("tblRaces").Rows(ID).Item("RaceImg")
If RaceImg = "AusGP" Then
GP_Picture.Image = Image.FromFile("./Track Images/AusGP.png")
ElseIf RaceImg = "MalGP" Then
GP_Picture.Image = Image.FromFile("./Track Images/MalGP.png")
End If
I have tried a number of different ways to get this working, I have tried them in the resources for the program and also tried the following code
GP_Picture.Image = "./Track Images/AusGP.png"
It seems like the picture box isn't redrawing or something? Just to add it will load the first image which is the AusGP because thats the first option in the combo box, after that none of the others will load.
I'm sure there are similar threads, but I've search and tried most things and still can't find something that works.
I am testing a small project, in the attempt to find the solution for a much bigger application. So, here's the deal. I'm using VB 2005 and MSSQL 2005 (both are Express editions). I've stored the names to some images in the database.
When I use PictureBox1.image = My.Resources.<filename>
and build the application, it works and properly displays the image. Now, what I'm really trying to do is extract an image names from the database and assign it to a variable, this is what I have.
Dim EqTest As New Test1DataSet.EqTestDataTable
Dim EqTestAdapter As New Test1DataSetTableAdapters.EqTestTableAdapter
EqTestAdapter.Fill(EqTest)
[Code]....
I've used the messagebox for testing so that I can see what the value of "Trythis" is, and the string is "My.Resources.<filename>", which is the correct string, but I can't use that string in the picturebox to display the image, because I get an error "Value of Type String can not be converted to System.Drawing.Image".
I want to load images into a picturebox, save them into a database and display them again in the picturebox. This is the code I'm actually having problem with:
Private Connection As String = _
"Provider=Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0;" & _
"Data Source=C:UsersclientDocumentsVisual Studio 2008ProjectsSavingsLoansCalc.mdb"
rivate Sub UploadButton_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, _
ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles UploadButton.Click

I'm getting this error message:
"Type 'Connection' is not declared"
On this line:
oConn = New OleDb.OleDbConnection( _
New Connection().getConnectionString)
Just want to know the best method to load a picture in a picture box dynamically. As part of my development, I was supposed to load 4 pictures from network to 4 picturebox controls.
For which, I found, 2 methods.
1. Picturebox1.Image=new bitmap("C:\test.jpg")
(or)
2. Piturebox1.ImageLocation="C:\test.jpg"
Which one is more suitable interms of performance.
I have a 4 pictureboxes for a database I made but having a problem with loading images in to the picturebox. On my form I have a picturebox, 1 button, 1 textbox, and 1 openfiledialog.
My button click event code
Private Sub Button1_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Button1.Click
OpenFileDialog1.ShowDialog()
TextBox1.Text = OpenFileDialog1.FileName
Pic1PictureBox.Image = Image.FromFile(TextBox1.Text)
End Sub
I can add pics but if I don't select any image (just close the dialogbox) I get an error and not sure what to do ..or what to add. Is there any code to tell it to just close..
i have a simple photo viewer application where i want the user to click a "load sequence" button and then i want something like a folderbroswerdialog to appear then the user can pick a folder with images in it then the images get loaded into the picturebox and the user can click a "forward" button to go to the next image in the sequence and a "backward" button to go to the previous image in the sequence, it's kinda like windows 7 photo viewer.

I have an xml file called "QuotesxmlDoc", in my program I have written code for a search screen that searches the xml file for titles or keywords in quotes saved and the information is then shown in a datagridview, see the code below:
Private Sub btnSearchQoutes_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles btnSearchQoutes.Click
Dim xmlnav As XPathNavigator

On the main screen of the program, I want to show all the saved quotes from the xml file in a datagridview, I just need to show the date, category, author, title of the quotes, I also need the datagridview to refresh everytime a new quote is saved.
I've written the following sub to load a comma delimited file into my datagrid view but it's hanging up when it attempts to load the first two values into the cells of the datagridview. I think it's having trouble adding the cells to the datagrid. I have tried writting them directly using the .text of the specific row and cell but when I incremented to the next row it hung up because the row didn't exist (I think).

I have an application that reads data values (numeric) from a data file. Due to a change in data requirements, I need to put these into a paramArray so I can calculate the MEDIAN of the series of numbers. I have seen some of the MSDN examples and they are all good except they load the paramArray with ArrayName(#, #, #, #, #). That's OK for a simple example, but how do I load a paramArray while reading numeric data from an ASCII input file? The number (Ubound) of samples is usually 153 but can vary considerably.
I think I can work out the rest of the MEDIAN calculation from the MSDN example code.
