I'm creating a wizard for a progam I'm coding, and NOT using the VB
wizard widget to do it - i.e. I'm rolling my own.
I show the user a form with instructions on it, and when they click the
Next button I hide the form and show them the appropriate data - input
form.
The form with instructions originally contained just a picture-box and
button control. Instructions displayed in the picture-box and click
the Next button as described above.
The instructions are/were a series of .BMP files (purely text) that I
loaded into the picture-box from a resource file.
This works OK, but I've come to realize that seven (7) individual .bmp
files of instructions makes for a large resource file.
So now I'm fooling around with storing these instructions into the
resource file as a series of seven (7) small text (.txt) files. I've
changed the picture-box control on the instructions form to a text-box
control with word-wrap.
Question: The .txt files are stored in the resource file as a "Custom"
type (of course.) How do I pull these .txt files out of the resource
file so that I can display them in my instruction form's text-box?
The basic call should be something like:
me.txtInstruct.text = Load????(xxxxx)
I've tried LoadResData, etc. to retrieve the text, but nothing seems
to work
If anyone could show me code that will work for this (and none of the
documentation that I can find - including MicroSoft's show examples of
retrieving "Custom" data) I'd appreciate it.
Thank you.
