Random image generation

Jim in Arizona

I was trying to create a random image generator. I'm using visual web dev
express with 2.0 framework.

On the web form page (mypage.aspx), I have an image control:

<asp:Image ID="Image1" runat="server" />

On the codebehind, (mypage.aspx.vb), I have this code when a button is
clicked:

Dim imagegen() As String
Dim x As Short

x = CShort(Rnd() * 15)

imagegen(0) = "../images/ticketimages/atlascow.jpg"
imagegen(1) = "../images/ticketimages/carpool.bmp"
imagegen(2) = "../images/ticketimages/catsquirrel.jpg"
imagegen(3) = "../images/ticketimages/creature.jpeg"
imagegen(4) = "../images/ticketimages/fitnessescalator.bmp"
imagegen(5) = "../images/ticketimages/frogcat.jpg"
imagegen(6) = "../images/ticketimages/helicopter.jpg"
imagegen(7) = "../images/ticketimages/highheelbike.bmp"
imagegen(8) = "../images/ticketimages/kisspandas.jpg"
imagegen(9) = "../images/ticketimages/libertylegs.jpg"
imagegen(10) = "../images/ticketimages/portapotty.bmp"
imagegen(11) = "../images/ticketimages/rabbitfingers.jpg"
imagegen(12) = "../images/ticketimages/santaplane.bmp"
imagegen(13) = "../images/ticketimages/sharkattack.jpg"
imagegen(14) = "../images/ticketimages/swissarmyant.jpg"
imagegen(15) = "../images/ticketimages/whaletail.jpg"

Image1.ImageUrl = imagegen(x)

When I tested the code, I got this error:

Server Error in '/' Application.

I'm a newbie with asp.net and vb.net. I've come a long ways but it seems
i've got a very long ways to go before I've got a clear understanding of
most of this stuff.

Thanks for the help!

You have not defined the size of the array, therefore imagegen(0) does not
exist.
