can someone look at this code for me?{resolved}

[System_Error]

First of all, what I want to do is draw simple things such as rectangles to a bitmap because, if you use creategraphics() the graphics dissapear after being minimized or moved. I sort of know how to go about doing this but my code is not working. The graphics are not showing up when I try to draw to a bitmap. Here's my code...

Dim bmp As New Bitmap(222, 222)
Dim grfx As Graphics = Graphics.FromImage(bmp)
Dim rect As New Rectangle(123, 211, 80, 90)
grfx.DrawRectangle(Pens.Blue, rect)



Can anyone tell me what I am doing wrong?
Any help is appreciated.

are you actually displaying the bitmap on something? because you won't see the bitmap unless you specify what to display it on.
eg: a picturebox's image ...

Dim bmp As New Bitmap(222, 222)
Dim grfx As Graphics = Graphics.FromImage(bmp)
Dim rect As New Rectangle(123, 211, 80, 90)
 
Dim p As New Pen(Color.Blue , 5) '/// added this in ( to specify the width of the rectangle also )
grfx.DrawRectangle(p, rect)
PictureBox1.Image = bmp '/// set the image to a picturebox

Thank you very much. I feel really stupid for not knowing that though.
