Changing picture box in C# Part 2
Hello,
I have a application that has an animation that runs every 2 minutes to remind users to use the application, this was done in the animation creation of the .gif. What I want to have happen is when a user clicks the submit button another image comes up for 5 to 10 seconds and then reverts back to the original place image.
I have followed the instructions from a previous post
https://www.experts-exchange.com/questions/24290678/Changing-picture-box-in-C.html
however I am getting context errors and such listed
referencing the image. what am I missing?

This solution is only available to members.
To access this solution, you must be a member of Experts Exchange.
Can't see any changes that need to be made, other than the fact it would make the timer redundant. Does the multithreaded version fit your needs and work the way expected?

I pasted the code but I am having some troubles getting it to react without errors. It seems to dislike the word image and when i replace it with the reference it gives me a context error.
What do you mean by a "Context error", is it a compile time error, or does it occur at runtime. What's the error message.
When talking about errors in .net, it's best to post the Exception type (ie. ArgumentNullException) and the exception message. This way it's possible for us to determine what is causing the error.

Sorry, been manic in the office.
I'd assumed that imageTemp & imageMain have been defined in the class. Also I'd assumed from the name that TriggerTrackerPictureBox is a PictureBox control, but as far as I can tell it's a type.
