"Does anyone know how to embed a picture into a vee program (and a vee runtime program)? Currently when I insert a picture, it is linked to an image file and if I move the program I must move the image file with it."
Looking at past VEE programs (written by someone else), a picture can actually be embedded into VEE by using Active-X controls.
To do that:-
1. Go to main menu, under "Device", and then go to "Active-X Controls".
2. Under "Active-X Controls", there is "List View". Choose "List View".
3. Right click on the "List View" icon to choose "Control Properties".
4. "ListView Properties" window will pop up. Choose "Picture" Tab, and under "Properties" designator, choose "Picture" and browse for the picture that you want.
5. That picture should stay in your VEE program regardless of where you are moving the file.
Not sure if this helps ;p
**********************
Forgot to add that this can only be done using "Microsoft Windows Common Control" as the Active-X Control References.

pass/fail/incomplete icons, and mine updates fine without the Clear pin.
I simply feed the image filename into the FileName pin, and it updates.

Hi all,
I've inserted a picture into my Vee 7 (7.01) program. It has a filename
input.
In the background I change the picture and then ping the picture
object in my
program. The displayed picture does not change in either the detail or
panel view.
To make the picture update, you have to ping the control input "Clear",
before
giving it the filename on the data input pin.
I hope this is useful to someone trawling the archives!
