Hello all
does anyone know of a free control or whatever to display png images
on a form in vb6 ?
Up until now I have been using a control aicAlphaImage.ocx, but now I
have changed the programs to display the forms fullscreen and the
controls are also enlarged, I get Runtime error 7 out of memory errors
on my wifes laptop which is where the programs are to be run. They run
ok on my desktop. Possibly this control is too 'heavyweight' for the
laptop and I need a lightweight control to just display the pngs.
From searching I gather that this error may not actually mean out of 
memory but can have other causes.
Failing this, can anyone suggest where I might start looking with a
view to writing my own control ?
I would prefer to stick with displaying png images if possible, but if
necessary I will have to change to displaying jpgs.
TIA
