New to the whole, Visual Basic Express Edition

I'm quite formal with Visual Basic 6.0 that my school uses, But the VBEE kind of gives me problems because of its whole user interface...

Question 1: Is there a way to make VBEE look and feel like the old floating boxes where you can see your desktop

Question 2: Now how do I take an image and make it an array, I could do that in the 6.0 but this seems to bug me alot

Question 3: I want to know if whether DragMode can still be applied to the pictures because its not working for me

    Speedy,

    Question 1 - Visual Studio no longer supports the SDI environment which it sounds like you were using in VB6

    Question 3 - the vb6 dragdrop functionality is not supported in the same way. You need to change your code to use the new oledragdrop. Here is a link that explains the changes:

    Question 1 : I don't know

    Quetion 2 : read my image processing articles on www.codeproject.com, they are in C#, but the core library is the same, so you'd do the same thing ( call LockBits )

    Question 3 : What's drag mode When you draw an image, you either draw it in a picturebox, which cannot be dragged, or directly onto the form ( which can be dragged, but only if you write the code to do it )

    1st one wont kill me because it not being too much of a problem, it just will take time to get use to. Thanks for the answer on the 2nd question. That was to some use, I just wish you could have had a better idea on 3. If you do figure it out, please inform me.

    DragMode is a function available in Visual Basic 6.0 that allows you to make dragable object with an Image Box.
