Inserting a .jpg picture

[ArthurB]

How would I put a .jpg picture on my user interface? I've tried to insert a "Picture" from the controls and then copy and paste the picture I want, but that doesn't work. I'm pretty sure it's straightforward, but I can't find a way to do it. I just want to put my logo on the user interface. The logo doesn't need to be added during run time, I want it there permanently. Thanks.

Unfortunately, adding a JPEG to a form in Visual C++ is not very straightforward. However, once you get the hang of it, it's not too difficult to do.

First save your JPEG as a Windows Bitmap (.bmp).

Then, there are four steps:
1) Import the bitmap into your project and give it a resource identifier
2) Add a Picture control to your form
3) Set the type of the Picture control to Bitmap
4) Set the Image of the Picture control to the resource identifier you chose in step 1

These steps are elaborated upon more extensively here: http://www.functionx.com/visualc/applications/displaybitmap.htm.
