I do not have a problem with adding a jpg file to a resource file and accessing this within a WinForm program. Right-click on project and select Add-- New Item and select Assembly Resource file. This will add the files resource1.resx and resource1.Designer.resx to the project. Double-click resource1.resx to open in Resource editor. Click on drop-down arrow next to Add Resource and Select Add Existing File and then navigate to your jpg files and add them. In my case I added vcproduct.jpg. Save this. I can then populate a PictureBox control and a button background with the .jpg using syntax: set pictureBox1::Image to type testresource.Resource1::vcproduct set button1::BackgroundImage to type testresource.Resource1::vcproduct Where testresource is the name of my project and therefore the default namespace. Thanks.
