How to select an image in a form?

[marcello62]

Hi there,

I want to add a reference to the file-path of a picture to a database table. In the user interface, users should be able to select the picture in a picturebox (I guess this is the right control). I'm looking for a way to get to the file-system in some sort of control, and use this control to store the path to the picture and select the picture in the picturebox. Does anyone know how to do this?

Any help will be greatly appreciated. Thanks

Have a look at the Application.FileDialog object.

Hope This Helps, PH.

Hi PHV,

I tried, and after some initial errors and corrections, I got the FileDialog control running. Now it works fine. Thanks!
