Hey All,
I want to store an image in a resource, and then use this image on a button. But I can't seem to get this working. In WPF should I be using resources to store the icons? Or should this be done differently?

Edit: I have Added a png to my Resources, and then in XAML tried:

Expand|Select|Wrap|Line Numbers
  1.                <comp:CFButton x:Name="btnScreenUp">
  2.                     <Image Source="Resources/UpScreen.png"/>
  3.                 </comp:CFButton>
  4.  
But this fails to compile. Atleast is says it does. If I run the application..it works. This is very bizarre. Any thoughts?

Also, the button is within a frame, and the frame is referenced within a window. In the window, the button shows up right, but when I look at the Frame xaml, it complains of an error and won't render.

Nevermind, closing and reopening VS fixed the issue.
