Default Loading a picture file


Is it possible to load a external picture into a Image object?

Use the LoadPicture function.

Btw, when you use the LoadPicture function, it is more technically correct to use Set when making the assignment. This is because LoadPicture returns an IPictureDisp object.

Code:
Set Picture1.Picture = LoadPicture("Drive:\Path\Filename.ext")
