Yeah.

You can add png to ImageManager at runtime using LoadBitmap or LoadBitmapFromResource (tip-the resource type needs to be 'PNG').

You can't. The VB6 resource editor is just an outdated and pretty useless add-in.

You need to compile your own .res file. You can do this using a MS tool called RC.exe. Here's a few links (the first one is easiest to understand):

I've attached a zip containing a dead simple resource project.

Do you know if there is a way to use the LoadBitmapFromResource  command and see these images while in VB's IDE.  Compiling to debug is a REAL pain.  I have other 3rd party controls which don't have a problem with referencing image resources from within the IDE.

Thank you in Advance!

Add resources to a dll. Then you can use the code in this thread to load them:

This works at both design time and runtime.
