[thelist] question concerning c# dynamicallychangingwhatisinapicturebox

[Lightning]

Thanks, Chris.

I am still struggling over it. I will let you know how it comes out.

To simplify things, I am trying to get THIS code to work:

Bitmap bgImage = new Bitmap(@"\Images\ClosedDoor.gif");

pbxFloor0.Image = bgImage;

I got it off the msn pages, so it SHOULD work, but I get a message that it 
doesn't like the parameter.
