Hi T,

Dim abyt() As Byte
abyt = CType(ds.Tables(0).Rows(0)(0), Byte())
Dim ms As New IO.MemoryStream(abyt)
Me.PictureBox1.Image = Image.FromStream(ms)

This is all you need.

I hope this helps?

This is the code im using:

Dim bytes() As Byte = CType(g_ADORecordset.Fields("Image").Value,Byte())
Dim imgStream As MemoryStream = New MemoryStream(bytes)
picLarge.Image = Image.FromStream(imgStream)

But I get an error: INVALID PARAMETER USED

In the 3rd line



Thanks

Hi T,

I think that it has to do with the OLE object with what it was loaded.

I never had to do with it, this is an article that maybe can help you to extract the pic from the object.

It is only an article. If not you can also ask this in the newsgroup.

microsoft.public.dotnet.drawings

I think you will find the answer there.

Or search the results I had with searching (there where more solutions)

However I hope the first link helps already?

Me.PictureBox1.Image = Image.FromStream(ms)

This is all you need.

Notice that the 'MemoryStream' must be kept alive as long as the image
is used.
