Hi,
 
Yes, LoadBitmapFromResource  will work. Use App.Instance as parameter.  But problem of such method that only compiled exe will have this resource - you won't see bitmap inside IDE. so guess its easy use ImageManager to load png in designtime.

I want to load pgn's from a .rc file to use on the toolbar buttons of a ribbon.  If I have a resource of:
 
      ID_FILE_EXIT     PNG     Exit.png
 
in my .rc file (compiled to Legacy.res)  how do I load it?  (I am using VB6)
 
Normally I use LoadResPicture(ID_FILE_EXIT, vbResBitmap).
 
In the ribbon control I assume I should use .LoadBitmapFromResource but I can't figure out what the first couple parameters should be.
 
Can anyone tell me what I should use?
