Setting a picture Property SOLVED!

Argh. I can't get this…. :confused:
I wonder how you set a picture property to an Image?
As in...
```
'In the form's Load event procedure, load these variables with the control properties:
Private Sub Form_Load()
  Image1.Picture = C \ Users \ Pickles \ Desktop \ u1.bmp
End Sub

```The compiler merely returns the error 11 "division by zero" and highlights
              Image1.Picture = C \ Users \ Pickles \ Desktop \ u1.bmp
and when I place my mouse over the yellow highlighted text it gives me somewhat of a ToolTipText that displays the value "-1174074972".

EDIT: SOLVED! I had to utilize the Resource Editor (that one green cube thing). Then I had to call up the resource file (the bitmap) by using the function
           ```
LoadResPicture(index, format)
```[the index is just an ID assigned to the bitmap (or any other imported resource) when it is uploaded to the project] and also use the predefined constant
           ```
vbResBitmap
```and from there on I also made it possible to open a new form.
Thanks for helping everyone!
