I have a communications system which sends data to a VB2010 program over 
USB.  I can readily decode the data and display various parameters.

This is used to demonstrate the comms system, and what I would like to 
do is send jpeg images to my VB program and display them in a 
PictureBox.  I can strip out all the comms overhead and write the jpeg 
to a byte array easily, but how can I then display this?

I could write a file to disk and read this into the PictureBox, but I 
want this to go fairly quickly - the jpegs form a slowish video stream.

I'd use two byte arrays, and display one while loading the other, then 
swap over.  But how do I make a picture from a byte array containing a 
jpeg image?

I suspect the answer is trivial, but I'm no VB guru.

Cheers
