Hi guys,

I have 2 images that both have a handle on them so in my project im downloading a new version of the image (http web request) but an error is caught.

I cannot for the life of me find where is issue occurs, i had this issue before surrounding deleting the image which was resolved by replacing image.fromFile with picturebox.load

I have tried disposing of the image before overwriting it but it doesnt work
frontCover.image.dispose()

Does anyone have any idea where else an image could be held in memory

Place a breakpoint, and go through the code line by line with f11, mouse over all your variables as you do so making sure they are the correct values they need to be. Let us know if you find any specific errors, then we can help you out. Other than that though, it's your ride to take here.

Show some code.

Hi Guys the problems seem to lay with this function

function purpose:
parse file for image urls
download into a folder location in c:
i add images to a picturebox array
add pictureboxes to form with images loaded from file

i believe the picturebox array is where the problem is.

  Dim i As Integer = 0

        'FilePath
        Dim fileName As String = String.Concat(directoryName, xmlFileName)

        'Get the movie name
        Dim movieTitle() As String
        movieTitle = directoryName.Split("\")


        If File.Exists(fileName) Then

            'New document
            Dim doc As XDocument


            Try

                'load file into document
                doc = Xdocument.Load(fileName)

                'Query for poster data
                Dim moviePoster = From p In doc.Descendants("image")
                                  Where p.Attribute("type") = "poster" And p.Attribute("size") = "thumb"
                                  Select posterURL = p.Attribute("url").Value.ToString



                'download posters and put in temp location
                While i <= moviePoster.Count

                    Try

                        'Download poster
                        Dim temp As String = String.Concat("C:\Program Files (x86)\myMovie Manager v3.01\Posters\folder", i)
                        Dim coverFilePath = String.Concat(temp, ".jpg")
                        Dim webClient As New System.Net.WebClient
                        webClient.DownloadFile(moviePoster(i).ToString, coverFilePath)
                        webClient.Dispose()

                        i = i + 1
                    Catch ex As Exception

                        i = i + 1
                    End Try

                End While

            Catch ex As Exception

            End Try
        End If


        'Get total number of posters in directory
        Dim di As New IO.DirectoryInfo("C:\Program Files (x86)\myMovie Manager v3.01\Posters")
        Dim aryFi As IO.FileInfo() = di.GetFiles("*.jpg")



        'x position

SOLVED . . ..

handle was held on the picturebox array, dispose of pictureboxes in array

Dim P As Integer = 0
                While P < PB.Length - 1
                    PB(P).Dispose()
                    P = P + 1
                End While

thanks to all who looked.
