Wallpaper and jpg

[Shellshocked]

Im trying to make a command button that makes the wallpaper the one i have chosen in my program. I have found some code for how to do this but i think it only supports .bmp and not .jpg

Do anyone know the code so i can set .jpg wallpapers from my command button in vb?

I really don't have any code to make what you want. I've been searching for it this morning 'cos I wanted to do the same. However, I can tell you how I managed to set the wallpaper I want. It's simple, but tricky. I load the jpg I want in a picturebox, saves it to a bmp and then I use the same code -I guess- you found to set the wallpaper. It would be something like this:

picture1.picture = loadpicture("C:\My Documents\MyJPG.jpg")
savepicture picture1,"C:\My documents\MyBMP.bmp"

then you call to the function that sets the wallpaper, asking the "MyBMP.bmp" file to be set as wallpaper.

Hope this helps you.
