I imported icons from the VS 2005 Image library and they look kind of weird. I have it set on 16-bit color. The icons in the toolbar look fine but the rest don't look right. Has anyone had this problem before?

I'm a newbie to VB 2008 Express. I have a treeview to which I'm trying to add icons. I've added the icons to the treeview images collection, and I've put an imagelist on the form and added the icons to the listview images collection. I can't seem to work out the syntax required to show the icons.
Code:
Me.TreeView1.Nodes(0).Nodes.Add(driveName(i) & volumeLabel(i), _
driveName(i) & " " & volumeLabel(i) & formatSize(freeSpace(i)) _
, ??? )

View 3 RepliesI'd like to move my images / icons and wav files (basically, almost all of my internal resources) from an existing project (VB 2005) and put them in an external dll, then reference this from my exe and call the relevant resource as required.
What would be the best way of doing this?I understand that I should create a ClassLibrary and put my resources in that, but how should I expose those resources to an external program and how should I reference and call the dll from my exe?
I've done some searching, but not found anything that seems to explain the process adequately enough.

I'm frustrated beyond belief that I can't find the proper API calls to get the information. If anyone knows how to do this, PLEASE share it here!! I know it is possible, because other shells do it. -Ray"

I'm looking for a SIMPLE and easy to use, very basic, image editing library. All I need to do is check the size of jpeg and png files and rotate them by multiples of 90°.I can develop my app in VB.NET or preferably VB5 and I'm not using any other library.
I tried the Advanced Image Library (based on Free Image Library), but I can't get the dll to correctly register and I'm afraid that I will also have problems when distributing the application.Is there something simpler? If it's not free it's fine, as long as the cost is reasonable.
TortoiseSVN and Dropbox both have Windows shell extensions that make file icons within Windows Explorer show a small icon beside the main one, showing the file's status - has it been synced, etc How can I make my application show icons beside files like that using the Windows API?

View 8 RepliesI am trying to create a text to speech program that can speak in a female voice and also have the option to save to a WAV file. I have found some code out there using the Microsoft Speech Object Library. but I can only get it to speak using a male voice. Can't seem to find a way to add a female voice. Things I have found says there should be at least a male and a female voice loaded but only the male voice is there. Also, on my PC, i have the SAPI DLL in the C:Program FilesCommon FilesMicrosoft SharedSpeech directory and when i right click and check its properties it says it is version 5.1.4111.0....but when my project is built, the Interop.SpeechLib.dll that is created is version 5.0.0.0.
The code I have is:
Private Sub Button1_Click(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Button1.Click
Dim Voice As SpeechLib.SpVoice
[CODE]...
Which speaks fine with the male voice. Haven't attempted the saving to a WAV piece yet since i can't get the female voice.
I've been searching for hours tonight searching existing posts, other websites and all i can find are examples of how to capture a image from a webcam.Does anyone have any code that simple talks to the camera device via WIA, and then saves every image found on the device to a hard drive?I found this code below. Credit i cant tell you as i have a bunch of different flavors of code, but this only saves the file as a tmp file, and not the actual image file i expected after selecting?
