[RESOLVED] Creating an image box

[Odracir123]

Is there anyway to create an image box during runtime through a button or code?

Either a no or explanation would be very useful.
Thanks in advance.

There two ways (only) to create new control ar runtime in VB6:

- using control array (group of controls sharing the same name but having unique indexes)
- using Controls collection

Method 1: control array:

- create one image control in design mode and change its Index property to 0 (zero)
during runtime use similar code (button click lot form_load or whatever):

Load Image1(Image1.Ubound +1)
Image1(Image1.Ubound).Move SomeLeft, someTop
Set Image1(Image1.Ubound).Picture = LoadPicture("full path goes here")
Image1(Image1.Ubound).Visible = True

Method 2 - controls collection:

Dim img As Image

Set img = Me.Controls.Add("VB.Image", "imgNew")
Set img.Picture = LoadPicture("full path goes here")
img.Move SomeLeft, someTop
img.Visible = True
