VB.net help with images

I need programming help with my vb.net project. I want some images to be in the project resource file, and put the images on various controls. I can do this successfully by reading the images I want from a file, but that creates installation overhead for the app. I need to know how to put the images into the project, apart from any files.

How did you mark your resource? Did you add it through the project resources page or mark it as an Embedded resource?

You can always determine the resource name by simply iterating over the GetManifestResourceNames collection; e.g. -

	Private Sub OnLoad(sender As Object, e As EventArgs) Handles MyBase.Load
		For Each item In Assembly.GetExecutingAssembly().GetManifestResourceNames()
			Console.WriteLine(item)
		Next
	End Sub

Open in new window

Which would produce the following output -
