file in use by another process
Up front, fairly new at vb.net.
I'm writing an application that views images in a picturebox, allows a keyer to enter data from the image, saves the data to an excel spreadsheet.
The problem I'm having is that when I try to move the images from the unread directory to the read directory, the program gives me the error "File in use by another process" (and, since it's the only process running, I'm assuming it's the program itself that has it).
The move syntax is fairly straightfoward ("file.move(unreadDirector
How do I get the program to let go of the image file to move it? I've tried both giving the picturebox the next image before moving it, and tried "picturebox1.picture = Nothing", but neither work.
Help?
