PictureLoad

[billrogers]

imgGGate.Picture = LoadPicture("GGI.gif")

I have this gif stored in the directory of my vb project, does anyone know why this works sometimes, and gives me a Run-time error "53":
File not found "GGI.gif"

I dont believe that a full path would be needed for this, but maybe I am wrong.

try

imgGGate.Picture = LoadPicture(App.Path & "\GGI.gif")

that should work

When in development mode your current directory is probably where VB lives

type:

print curdir

in the debug window and you'll get somthing like:

C:\Program Files\Microsoft Visual Studio\VB98

If you
ChDir App.Path

your current dir will be as you expected.
