I have never worked with images in a vb.net project before, so I am looking for some help. Some background info.....

The images (probably .jpg) will be stored in a SQL database. I guess I don't know or understand what type of control to use on a form to display the image (or it could be multiple images) to the user. Secondly, I don't know what call to make to get the image(s) so that i can display them.

So basically I am looking for any advice, how to's, website, etc.... on this topic.

As always thanks in advance.

Do some tinkering with the PictureBox control.

With a picturebox control, can you have multiple images displayed in it? Can you associate an imagelist with a picturebox control?

If you can't do either of these, what control should I use to display multiple images?

As always thanks in advance.

Maybe multiple pictureboxes...?

Multiple pictureboxes? There no way for me to call an stored procedure, and have it send me a collection images that I store into an imagelist and then display 1 at a time?

My confusion or difficulty is on the code to read the images from the stored procedure. I call the stored procedure and I don't know what the code looks like to store the 10 pictures it gives me into an imagelist.

As always thanks in advance.
