you can set the 'picture' property of a picturebox object on your form to any image that you want, ex:
myPictureBox.picture="myPhoto.jpg"if you want to get the image from a subfolder in the applications' folder, use something like:myPictureBox.picture="\images\The Book of Stuff\cover.jpg"ormyPictureBox.picture=CurDir() & "images\The Book of Stuff\cover.jpg"this is probably very obvious and probably u've already tried this method. if this doesnt help, supply more detail, id like to help. ------------------------ Jordan.
