Hi
I am trying to display an image in a dialog using the following code;
Dim frm As New frmImage
Dim z As System.Drawing. Bitmap
z.FromFile("c:\ temp\image.gif" )
frm.picImage.Im age = z
frm.ShowDialog( )
frm.Dispose()
Trouble is that no image appears in the dialog. What am I doing wrong?
Thanks
Regards
