I have created a program which is more on loading an image. I have already finish my program but I have still a problem in running my program. My program is too slow because of large images.
I try this code to make the images lighter but it doesn't work.

VB

Public Sub LoadImage(ByVal imgName As String)
    With Entry1
        .imgView.ScrollBars = SB_Both
        .imgView.ViewUpdate = True
        .imgView.ToolSet TOOL_Hand, IXMOUSEBUTTON_Left, 0
        .imgView.PageNbr = imgPage
        .imgView.fileName = imgPath & imgName
        .imgView.IResX = 300
        .imgView.IResY = 300
        '.imgView.AutoSize = ISIZE_ResizeImage
        .imgView.SaveFile
        .imgView.ZoomToFit ZOOMFIT_BEST
    End With
End Sub

Is there any way to make the images lighter? or to resize an image?
Any help will be accepted.

If you use Image control[^], you can use simply trick from: http://visualbasic.freetutes.com/learn-vb6/picturebox-image-controls.html[^]

VB

' Load a bitmap.
Image1.Stretch = False
Image1.Picture = LoadPicture("c:\windows\setup.bmp")
' Reduce it by a factor of two.
Image1.Stretch = True
Image1.Move 0, 0, Image1.Width / 2, Image1.Width / 2

Another way to increase performance, is to use AutoRedraw property.

VB

Image1.AutoRedraw = True 'False

For PictureBox control, refer this: http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/zzt5x46b%28v=vs.80%29.aspx[^]

VB

Picture1.AutoSize = True 'False
