How can i stretch a picturebox?

How can i stretch the picture in a picturebox like i can in an imagecontrol?

You could try using StretchBlt to blit to the picturebox

in picturebox control set the property autosize=true.
and in imagecontrol set the property stretch=true
try this

The stretch property in the image control will stretch the picture to fix the control's size. The autosize property in the picturebox control will resize the picturebox to the size of the picture.

plenderj>> Explain some more about Bitblt. Some code would be great.. Thank you..

This should do it.
Add a picturebox called Picture1, and a small picture called a.bmp in the root directory, and this should do it.

VB Code:

Private Declare Function StretchBlt Lib "GDI32" (ByVal hdc As Long, ByVal x As Long, ByVal y As Long, ByVal nWidth As Long, ByVal nHeight As Long, ByVal hSrcDC As Long, ByVal xSrc As Long, ByVal ySrc As Long, ByVal nSrcWidth As Long, ByVal nSrcHeight As Long, ByVal dwRop As Long) As Long
Private Declare Function CreateCompatibleDC Lib "GDI32" (ByVal hdc As Long) As Long
Private Declare Function DeleteDC Lib "GDI32" (ByVal hdc As Long) As Long
Private Declare Function LoadImage Lib "user32" Alias "LoadImageA" (ByVal hInst As Long, ByVal lpsz As String, ByVal un1 As Long, ByVal n1 As Long, ByVal n2 As Long, ByVal un2 As Long) As Long
Private Declare Function DeleteObject Lib "GDI32" (ByVal hObject As Long) As Long
Private Declare Function SelectObject Lib "GDI32" (ByVal hdc As Long, ByVal hObject As Long) As Long
 
'' Device Contexts used for blitting
Private myDc As Long
 
Private DC As Long
Private picTemp As IPictureDisp
 
Private Sub Form_Load()
    DC = CreateCompatibleDC(Form1.hdc)
    If DC < 1 Then
        Exit Sub
    End If
    Set picTemp = LoadPicture("c:\a.bmp")
    SelectObject DC, picTemp
    GenerateDC = DC
    DeleteObject picTemp
    myDc = DC
    
    StretchBlt Picture1.hdc, 0, 0, Picture1.Width, Picture1.Height, myDc, 0, 0, Form1.ScaleX(picTemp.Width), Form1.ScaleY(picTemp.Height), vbSrcCopy
    
End Sub

Thanx!! Got it and run it..:D
