Hi

I'm using Excel 2003 & AutoCAD

I have an XML file of point co-ordinates that I use to create 2d symbols for AutoCAD.

On the Userform I would like an Image of each of the symbols to display as they're selected from a listbox.

To do one for each would take for ever (& they're likely to change).

Is there a technique to do this on the fly using the XML data?

Sorry, this is the first time I've done this & I've no idea where to start.

Thanks in advance.

An alternative is to use an ImageList control on the form
to store the images. See...
