Hi! You have to take care to use the correct name for the resource. Usually you have to prefix the object's filename with the namespace of your application (e.g. "WindowsApplication16.MIS_1.png" or whatever your namespace is).

Hi, I cant remember all the details, so this is what I do: - add the image file to the project, set it to "embedded resource" (you probably did that already) - use Designer to add some control (say picturebox) that consumes an image, and set it up to use your image - now look at the code Designer has generated for you, and copy/paste what you need - throw away what you no longer need Works the first time every time. :)
