hello my friend:

im not an expert in visual basic, but if you are using a picturebox control, i can show you how to load a picture on it.

you can do it directly in the property's of the control, setting the picture property with the path of the picture in a search button near the property textbox.

The other way is to do it in code like this:

Private Sub Form_Load()
picture1.Picture = LoadPicture("filename as String ")
End Sub

i hope this will help you my friend!

if you want a full code example, please e mail me at: alvison@dr.com so i can
attach some files to you!

ps: im using VB6 my friend!
