Binding an Image to a picturebox

I have a very basic form that has controls bound to a SQL 2005 database for
an Employee Directory. I'm using a PictureBox control to bind to the
"Photo" field which is of datatype image. However, it doesn't seem to work.
It does not display the image from the database (it's blank). Also, when I
use a function to upload a new image, it displays correctly but shows
regardless of which record I am on. It then does not save to the database
on the dataset update command.

Help!'
Thanks,
Ryan

Nevermind it was some problem with the data imported from another database.
I cleared the photo field for all records and it works fine now (uploading
and saving).

Sorry!

Hi All, I've been working on a form that has several bound controls that all link to one table in a dataset. In the table, there is a column for the filename of jpeg images related to each record. I have a combobox which displays the key for each record so that the user can select an item and all the other controls update. So far i have the combobox, a label and a textbox all bound and working correctly when a user selects an item. ...

Hello, I'm trying to load different images (icons) into a PictureBox1.Image. The first image loads just fine, but the second image always returns the error "Invalid property used."

I have a picturebox on my VB.NET form. The picturebox size mode is set to stretched. I then load an image into that form and display it. As the user moves the mouse over the form, I want to get and display (in the status bar) the image coordinates of the mouse location. However, if I use the picturebox's MouseMove event, I am getting the coordinates of the mouse over the PICTUREBOX, not the actual image underneath that (which is stretched)....

Hello All, I¡¯m using a context menu associated with some pictureboxes to provide copy/paste functionality. Copying the image to the clipboard was easy. But pasting an image from the clipboard is proving to be more difficult. These pictureboxes are bound to an AccessDB. If the user wants to add an image, they select an image using an OpenFileDialog: Dim result As DialogResult = Pic_Sel.ShowDialog() If (result = DialogResult.OK) Then

Hi Is there a simple way to bind a PictureBox image to a datatable?? I've tried pictureBox.DataBindings.Add("BackgroundImage", dt1, "Picture"); But it doesn't seem to work. Do I have to go to the trouble of creating memorystreams?? I thought there was an easy way in VS 2005 / .Net 2.0

Overview: Windows 11 and 10 have less user interface control over operating system update behaviour than previous versions of Windows. In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...
