Quick question for the experts...

Whenever I set the Image property of a PictureBox on one of my forms to a
PNG graphic file on my hard drive, I get the following runtime error when I
try to run the app:

Exception Type: System.Resources.MissingManifestResourceException
Message: Could not find any resources appropriate for the specified culture
(or the neutral culture) in the given assembly.

Does anyone have any idea what this error message means?

Have you set this through the IDE or by hand?

Hi Bob,

I set it through the IDE using the properties window.

this error is normaly generated if your resource manager is trying to
find some resources for
a not specified culture.
in your case i cant imagine where and why this error is generated.
watch out your exe file with ILDSAM and look how your resources are binded.

perhaps there is something wrong.
otherwise post code to see whats going on, or try another picture format.
e.g. *.bmp oder *.jpg
