Hello,
I am new to disscution forums so please bear with me.
I am also new to VB. I have been studying it for a little less than a year in my spare time. Things are going pretty well, but I have a stumper about the difference between .jpg files and .bmp files with the vb picture box control .jpg files are slower than molasses when loading. on to the control.

The question: Is there a way to make them load faster? or a tool available to convert the format to .bmp? also to, I have a somewhat slowish computer 233mhz is this part of the problem?

Any hints would be greatly appreciated

thankyou Arrle
