Image on Button

[Jeffrey Saunders]

How do I change the from text on a button to an image? I know in VB6, you
can go to the Styles option of the button and just change it graphical. How
do you do this in VB.NET?

Set the button's 'Image' property and set 'Text' to "".

I did that and the button is blank now

Hi Jeffrey,

There are two methodes
- using the imagelist
- using the button.image - btn.image= image.fromfile("path")
But nicer is to do it in the designer because then the image becomes a part
of the program

I hope this helps,

Cor

Is your buttons FlatStyle property set to System?
Change it to any of the other three options (the default being Standard).

I did that and the button is blank now

'System' buttons cannot deal with images...
