Changing a bmp image size in VB

[cturland]

Hi all,

Is it possible to change a bmp image size in VB without the use of any paint packages?

Thanks,
Carl

If you are asking, can you change an image placed on a VB form the answer is yes by setting the image's 'Stretch' property to 'True' then sizing the image.

*Note: The image will lose some of its integrity.

Moki's tip assumes your image is held in an Image control and not a PictureBox control.

If you want to do it programatically, use the StretchBlt API call. It's like BitBlt, used for copying bitmaps, except it allows you to specify the target size.
