How do I add a list of files (all images in .png format) stored in the project resources to a dropdown list and then return the user selected image into a picturebox (or store it for later use?). Part of the issue is that I only want to return the .png's, not any other files stored in the Resources.

View 1 RepliesI made a picture box and imported an image named Title.jpg. Later I made adjustments to the picture and imported it again without deleting the original(mistake). The new one had the name automatically changed to Title1.jpg. So I deleted the original image from resources and renamed Title1.jpg back to Title.jpg.
Now I got two problems. First, only Title.jpg is on the solution explorer, but Title1.jpg(along with Title.jpg) still pops up on the resource list when I click on Image property of the picture box. There's only the name and no picture, and I don't see a delete option. How do I get rid of it? Second, even though I changed the image to the new Title.jpg in the picture box, the old one is displayed when running the app. What's up with that?
How do you change the cursor image to an image from the project resources?

i want to add a image to resources...actually i am giving user facility to add his logo into the report..so i am giving him a picture box to select th image he wants to add..then my question is how can i ad that image to project resources proramatically without erasing previous resources..
Currently i have created another resx file to add logo in it.but there is a threat that user may delete that file if he gets the location of that file..so i wanted to add image into project resources itself..
I'd like to add an image to the resources during runtime.The user will open files using dialog box and select multiple files then the selected files will be stored to the resources.

I am trying to load a GIF file by its string name from my.resources as what GIF to show is chosen at random and based off that random number we get a valid string name. The names come out proper because I used the Msgbox trick
Here is my faulty coding
Public Function PrintCardName(ByVal Suit As String, ByVal Hand As String, ByRef ImgBoxUpdate As System.Windows.Forms.PictureBox)
'Working code omitted to save reading time
ImgBoxUpdate.Image = My.Resources.ResourceManager.GetObject(Card_File_N ame)
End Function
And Card_File_Name is a predefined string, and no there is no space after the letter N in card_file_name it just appears that way because its italicized
The issue is that the Imagebox that is referanced to IMGBOXUPDATE goes blank after this function.

View 5 RepliesI am attempting to use several image resources in a web application I am working on, but I am doing something wrong. Here is what I have so far:.An image named frog.gif in a folder named images (/images/frog.gif). This image has the Build Action set to Embedded Resource.
.The Root Namespace (as specified in My Project -> Application) is WebApplication2005.The AssemblyInfo.vb file contains the line:<Assembly: WebResource("WebApplication2005.images.frog.gif", "image/gif")>
.The codebehind file for the page contains the following line in the Load event:
Me.Image1.ImageUrl = Me.Page.ClientScript.GetWebResourceUrl(Me.GetType(), "WebApplication2005.images.frog.gif")
However, when I do a debug, the src attribute of the img tag does have a URL starting with
WebResource.axd, but it is not accessing the resource. What could I be doing wrong? I feel like I have tried everything possible, but with no success.[URL]..

I'm trying to copy/move (whichever works in the end) a picture from my resources in my program, to the startup path.
However, when i try it, it tells me that the file could not be found.
System.IO.File.Copy(My.Resources.Image, PATH, False)That will turn up with an error telling me that the value of type Bitmap cannot be converted to string. So i figured i would try to put a .ToString behind it, and then i'll get the File Not Found error.
i am referencing my resources at startup so i do not need to access my resources again as i know it would create an identicle instance of that resource and you can not compare them.But i am trying to determine the current picturebox image. I can using the if statement If pictureboxcurrentimage Is _myreferencedmembervariable Then But using if seems messy since i have a lot og images so want to use select case.
Select Case pictureboxcurrentimage
Case _myreferencedmembervariable
End Select

I am making a VB.NET application linked to a database. when you press the button 'generate' it is writes (fairly simple) webpages to a folder in your destkop. what I tried was adding a build-in uploader to my website, but my host didn't supported that. ok, not that big of a deal, and completely out of context but now let's get to the core of my problem;
I wanted to have an image in the resources (none made yet) and have it copied out the resources and placed along with the webpages (to use it as background image). I have tried a lot (clearly not everything or it would work) but I just don't manage to solve this. the problem is I need to be able to do this, since I want to have my .accdb in the resources to, so that it copies out when used an writes (an updated version) back to the resources and deletes the external file. but I never seem to manage to do this. I tried to read,write and other things it with IO and everything, just getting the message that it cannot be read. but I never seem to find how to copy/move it outside the program. the code I am using now looks like this:
Imports System.Reflection
Imports System.IO 'this is for the writing of the .HTML files
Imports System
Public Class webGenerator
