Hello,
I'm trying to load different images (icons) into a PictureBox1.Ima ge.
The first image loads just fine, but the second image always returns the
error "Invalid property used."
It doesn't matter what icons are loaded. The first always shows up and any
icons after that give me the error.
Here is the offending code:
The "DestinationPat h" variable is the full path and filename of the icon
Private Sub LoadIcon()
Dim FStream As New FileStream(Dest inationPath, FileMode.Open)
Try
PictureBox1.Ima ge = System.Drawing. Image.FromStrea m(FStream)
Catch Err As Exception
MsgBox(Err.Mess age)
End Try
FStream.Close()
End Sub
Is there something I am forgetting to close or clear?

Welcome to MS graphics!!!! (I am not a big fan of .NET graphics).
You are closing your file stream in the subroutine. Once you do that,
the picturebox cannot manipulate the image or even re-draw it.
Since the file must stay open so the picturebox can use it, try
this....
Private Sub LoadIcon()
'set up an image
Dim newimage As System.Drawing. Image
'fill from file
'but the file will stay open !!!!!
newimage = System.Drawing. Image.FromFile( lcl_filename)
'this will close the last file opened
If Not PictureBox1.Ima ge Is Nothing Then
PictureBox1.Ima ge.Dispose()
End If
Try
PictureBox1.Ima ge = newimage
Catch Err As Exception
MsgBox(Err.Mess age)
End Try
End Sub
Now the file will be opened and locked by the picturebox, but you will
be able to do what you are trying.

I tried the code but after it loads a few icons it gives me an out-of-memory
error.
I'm really beginning to "love" vb.net right now. Some things that were
simple are now ridiculously hard
and other things are easier.
Do I need to dispose of the newimage after it gets placed into the
Picturebox?

No, don't dispose of newimage. If you try that you will find that the
picturebox can't handle the image.
Is your out of memory error a "GDI+" error or a system error?
How many icons can you load before you get this error? I don't have
any problems with 30+ times into the subroutine.

Are you sure that the second file is an icon file? What happens if it
goes first (or third)? Can you just load it into the picturebox from
the IDE?
From the help file --
Image.Fromfile - Creates an Image object from the specified file.
<snip>
If the file does not have a valid image format or if GDI+ does not
support the pixel format of the file, this method throws an
OutOfMemoryExce ption exception.
It seems as if the Icon file has something different. What is it?
What is the size, resolution, pallete, etc. ?

I think you are right. One of the icons looks okay but won't load into the
image. I'll have to consider it bad and if it won't load skip it and move
to the next.
