Load image into a variable and this set it = to picturebox image.

[Peter]

If I have the image 'Myimage.gif' in my application directory,
how do I load this image into a variable,
and then... set this = to a picturebox image property.

I do not want to directly assign the image.

Dim myImage as new System.Drawing.Bitmap("myPath\myimage.gif")

Herfried,

What was it with you yesterday, mix up seconds with minutes.
And here mix up controls with variables.

Well, I did some optimization and got rid of the variable... ;-).
