zooming in an picture box

is it possible?

You can put a picture box inside a picture box, have a few buttons to enlarge it and move it around..for a zooming effect..

One method is to use an Image and set it's Stretch property to True. That way, when you resize the image, the picture itself will stretch to fit the control.

But, if you would like to keep the picturebox, then take a look at the following example.

Well, that's what I was aiming at...use an Image control and put it inside a picture box...and that will create a zooming effect.
