[2005] Fill a combobox with the names of a imagelist imagesnames.

[sparrow1]

Hi All,

I didn't found something about that subject.

Like the question says.
I want to fill a combobox with the Imagesnames from a imagelist.
How can I do that?

This is already a part of my app.
When I fill my combobox manually then I call the image like this:

Private Sub ComboBox1_SelectedIndexChanged(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles ComboBox1.SelectedIndexChanged
        PictureBox1.Image = (ImageList1.Images(ComboBox1.SelectedItem & ".jpg"))
    End Sub

That's working very good, but how should I do the other part.

Thanks,

sparrow1

Part of the problem is that the file is loaded as a resource when it is added to your imagelist.

If you want the filename of the file itself, don't use an image list. Instead, just store all of the file in a special folder in your app. Then, use the File.IO to get the files:

Dim strFiles() As String = System.IO.Directory.GetFiles("path")

Loop through for all the file names and add them to the combobox
