how to set form.picture in runtime

**palinden** · Oct 8th, 2000, 02:24 PM

Hello everybody,

can anyone help me with the following problem?

I have a MDI-form and I want to let the user decide to show a background or not. I thought I had to code something like this:

Code:

if blnBackGround then
   me.picture = "bg.bmp"
else
   me.picture = ""
endif

but I was wrong.

What do I have to do, to get it done?

Code:

If blnbackground Then
Me.Picture = LoadPicture("bg.bmp")
Else
Me.Picture = Nothing
End if

Thanks!

That was easy, but how do you refresh a MDIform?

mdiform.paint misses
