I've noticed that there is no ImageCombo in VB.NET, is there an equivalent out there, or maybe something else I could use?

Hello again!

Do you mean a ComboBox that supports images? If so then the standard ComboBox doesn't but there are numerous inherited ComboBoxes around that do. The ExtendedComboBox in the WFC library in my signature is just one. It was compiled for .NET 1.1 but seems to work OK in 2.0 as well. I'm sure there are several examples at The Code Project and others elsewhere too.
Thank you so much my friend, I'll test it out tonight!
That combobox is in a .csproj format. Any other extended comboboxes?
You aren't supposed to use the code. The whole .NET Framework was written in C# but that doesn't stop you using it does it? You are supposed to add a reference to the WFC library to your project, just as you do with assemblies from the Framework. Then it doesn't matter what language was used to create them in the first place because a .NET assembly is a .NET assembly. They all contain MSIL regardless of the original development language.Quote:

There's no guarantee it will be 100% perfect but you can fix the issues yourself using your own VB.NET knowledge.
How would you add images to this combobox through vb.net code? I don't understand.
Have you added an ExtendedComboBox to a form and checked out what members it has? If not then that's the first thing you should do. Put on your detective's hat and investigate.
I'm so glad I found this thread. I just tried out the extended combobox from your WFC library and it is exactly what I was looking for. Some of the other controls look pretty cool as well, I'll check them out later. THANKS
Just to stipulate, it's not "my" library. My great skill in life is compiling lists of links to useful resources provided by others. ;)Quote:
