i would like to find out how to get a text box and picture box to load external files by clicking on an object in a listbox and then get the program to luanch an .sim2pack file using a command button the text, picture and .sims2pack file have the ame name as the string in the listbox

i,m developing a personal program that will allow me to add .sims2pack files to it, then look at an image and description of the pack file before i use the install button to launch the pack file.

any help would be much appreciated

i'm also interested in turning this into a shareware application, any help and advice on this subject would also be appreciated

credits will be given to anyone who can help me.

What have you done so far?

It is simple to make a list, if the item in the list is the name of the file, then you simply open that file in a picturebox, if it is a recognized image format. Can you load the image? Can you make a list?

i have setup the layout and coded the basic fuctions of the exit and back to main menus. i have placed a listbox a picture box and textbox on the form above the command buttons. i have added the names of the files to the listbox using the collection property in the properties box. however i haven't declared the collection. i'm unsure how to proceed.

i have given the following names to the boxes and command button lstHome picHome txtHome cmdInstall

i'm not to sure how to proceed.

i would greatly appreciate your help
