Hi!


How can I load a tif file into a picture control whitout convert him first.

Thanks
Mircea Serban
 
You can't. The PictureBox control does not support TIFs - only BMP, DIB, GIF, JPG, WMF, EMF, ICO & CUR.
 
Correct!
You can use the Kodak image control.... to display, and if desired, edit a TIF file....
You can add a reference to it:
IMGEDIT.Oca
 
Hi

I tried to find the Kodak control but I didn't find it. I find just some Wang controls but I don't know to work with them.
Please more details

The Wang control is the same.
There is a sample project that gets installed with W95 and NT: Do a search for imgsampl.vbp or goto the microsoft Kb and do a search on article Q140980. There you can download it - put and extract it into a separate folder.
 
There is very little documentation for them. On Windows 9x the controls were made by Wang. They were taken over by Kodak from Me/2000 onwards. The objects (Wang & Kodak) are virtually identical.

You will probably want to work with the ImgEdit control.
You should be able to navigate to the documentation from Unfortunately I can't find a closer link than this, but look in the table of contents for the Imaging ActiveX Controls Reference.
