If you are interested in having more control and options with images in VFP, including image processing functionality, and at a great (royalty-free) price, you might look at http://smalleranimals.com/ and click to the ImgSource product. We have been using a prior-generation version of the same product for years and it has worked great.


>I'm trying to determine if the image that I assign to the Picture value of an image control is actually being displayed. In other words, if the user selects a corrupt image file to be displayed on the form in my image control, it won't be displayed. I want to be able to trap that and provide some feedback to the user so they don't think the form isn't working.

>As far as I can tell, the image control provides no feedback regarding invalid files ... it just doesn't display the picture. I'm already checking the extension and looking at the first 4 characters of the file to try to determine if they've selected a true image file. But none of this protects against corrupted image files.
