Hi, i would like to know the code so when i load a Form it shows me the list of images in a specific folder inside the app folder, but i dont know wich control to use, like imageslist or list view, so when i have in the form the display list of all the images in that folder i can select one and it shows the image in a picture box.

Hello Luistkd

You can use this to get your application location

Dim directory As String = My.Application.Info.DirectoryPath
 
And Use 
 
Dim di As New IO.DirectoryInfo(directory)
Dim diar1 As IO.FileInfo() = di.GetFiles("*.jpg")
Dim dra As IO.FileInfo
 
For Each dra In diar1
ListBox1.Items.Add(dra)
Next
 
To Get The Pictures In A ListBox 
 
You Can Change This Line If The Pictures Are Not In A .jpg Extension To Any Other Extension
 
Dim diar1 As IO.FileInfo() = di.GetFiles("*.jpg")
 
So This Is The Final Code
 
Dim directory As String = My.Application.Info.DirectoryPath
Dim di As New IO.DirectoryInfo(directory)
Dim diar1 As IO.FileInfo() = di.GetFiles("*.jpg")
Dim dra As IO.FileInfo
 
For Each dra In diar1
ListBox1.Items.Add(dra)
Next

I Hope This Is What You Were Looking For

Would help us to answer this question if you told us what type of project you are developing: WinForms, WPF, ASP.NET...???

Here is an example of how to accomplish this in a WPF application.
