[2005] String to Brush???

[baronobeandip]

Hey I'm making a very basic paint program and I wanted to make it so you could put in any color into a combobox and set the color to a brush, but what I have is:

myBrush = "Brushes." + ComboBox2.Text
DrawBrush = myBrush

Although, obviously it dosn't work, can anyone help???

Try this;

Dim myBrush As SolidBrush
        myBrush = New SolidBrush(Color.FromName(ComboBox2.Text))
