Button and Random Image

Question

I am pretty new to Visual Studio. I am trying to have a button select a random image from a file and display it in a picture box. Does anyone know how to do that?

Answer 1

Try something like this:

Random rnd = new Random( );

private void button1_Click( object sender, EventArgs e )
{
 string folder = @"D:\MyImages";
 string[] files = Directory.GetFiles( folder );

 pictureBox1.ImageLocation = files[rnd.Next( files.Length )];
}

Rnd is a member of your form class, folder is the directory that contains images only.
