How do I load an image from a resource file?

:confused:

Public rm As System.Resources.ResourceManager = New System.Resources.ResourceManager("Resourcename", System.Reflection.Assembly.GetExecutingAssembly())

rm.GetObject("imagename") will return the image

Hello,

It seems to me that the standard resourced for VB.Net only know of BMP-files. I need to store GIF's and JPG's in a VB.Net application. Can you do this with resources? Do you know of any other ways on how to do this?

Thanks.

You can store any image format.

REsource will take any. Gif, JPg, Ico, etc.

do this

Dim a As New Image

a = CType(rm.GetObject("imagename"), Image)

a becomes an image object which can be any image format.

Thanks!
