Unable to delete image file

Posted by Admin on 07-Jul-2010 09:34

I am using UltraPictureBox to load the image for each record, but I can't delete the file that is recently created. I get OS-ERROR #2 or #999 when I try to use OS-DELETE . All the image files are locked. I have to close the application to delete those files. Please help.

picturebox.image =  System.Drawing.Image:FromFile(FileName).

OS-DELETE

VALUE(FileName) .

The image files you are trying to delete are locked by your application. If you really want to delete them after displaying them, you could read the file using a stream, like this:

fileStream = new System.Io.FileStream(fileName, System.IO.FileMode:Open, System.Io.FileAccess:Read).

pictureBox:Image = System.Drawing.Image:FromStream(fileStream).

fileStream:Close().

os-delete value(fileName).

Hope it helps.
