>>Try creating an empty form with one Image object and a "Display" button that you can use to assign an explicit path to a .BMP file (anything in the Windows directory) then run it from the command window and click the button and see what happens. I would guess you would see the same thing I am seeing.

Yeah, if I create a new Image object every time it works fine, but if I just go into the form designer and put an Image object on the form and use the same Image object every time and just change it's Picture property then it doesn't work.
