Change form backround with common dialog


Visual Basic 6, or VB Classic

Kind of like skinning your program

Original Author: Demian Net

Code

' Name your form Form1
' Load comdlg32.ocx
' Make a Command1
' Make a common dialog named CDialog

Private Sub Command1_Click()
   On Error GoTo fileOpenErrr
    CDialog.CancelError = True
    CDialog.FLAGS = &H4& Or &H100&
    CDialog.DefaultExt = ".jpg"
    CDialog.DialogTitle = "Select File To Open"
    CDialog.Filter = "JPEG (*.jpg)|*.jpg|GIF (*.gif)|*.gif|BITMAP (*.bmp)|*.bmp"
    CDialog.ShowOpen
Set Form1.Picture = LoadPicture(CDialog.filename)
fileOpenErrr:
    Exit Sub
End Sub

' This is what I use for a sort of skin effect on my programs.
