How to load all folder or DB images at once?

Hi everyone,

I have a database with images path.
The form has a toolbar with a menu of body parts( head, torso, hands,....).

I need help so that when the user click on the head button, all the images in database table "head_thumbnails" are loaded in pictureboxes at once.

Thank you.

Welcome to the forums.

1. The db contains image paths? If so, you will have issues if the image is no longer at that path or the path no longer exists.

2. A picture property (form, picturebox, image control, etc) can only store one image at a time

3. So, you can only load one image at a time. But you can do this in a loop.

Hi LaVolpe,

Thanks for answering so quickly.

Concerning the image path issue, i was avoiding adding them as ole (database volume).

Let me explain the images thing:

for exemple, for toolbar button head there is a sstab (with visibilty on/off ) wich contains 20 pictureboxes array;

So, if I understand I have to do it manually (adding the number of picturebox), then how can I make the pictureboxes evenly distributed on sstab.

thanks again.
