Hello all im new to prgramming and ive gotten to a dead end where im hoping some of you people can help me! Basically i am trying to make a media player that opens pictures audio and video into seperate forms, so i have 4 forms main form where i have used an openFileDialog to select file types, the openFileDialog is excecuted from a menuStrip which has the 3 video pictures and audio options. What i am stuck on is the pictures part i have managed to get the openFileDialog to open and be flitered to jpeg and bitmaps etc and once a picture file is selected ive managed to open the pictures form where i want the picture to open into a picture box on that particular formmy problem is exactly that trying to get the picture open into that form and into that picturebox. I have got the following code so far: private void pictureToolStripMenuItem_Click(object sender, EventArgs e) { String Chosen_File = ""; ofSelectMedia.InitialDirectory = "C:"; ofSelectMedia.Title = "Select An Image"; ofSelectMedia.FileName = ""; ofSelectMedia.ShowDialog(); Chosen_File = ofSelectMedia.FileName; frmPictureViewer frmMediaPlayer = new frmPictureViewer(); frmMediaPlayer.Show(); Please help!
