hi, how can i show a jpg file on a picture control box?

BOOL CALLBACK AppDlgProc(HWND hDlg, UINT uMsg, WPARAM wParam, LPARAM lParam)
{
switch(uMsg)
{

case WM_INITDIALOG:
DragAcceptFiles(hDlg,true);
SetClassLongPtr(hDlg, GCLP_HICON, (long)LoadIcon(0, IDI_APPLICATION));
return 1;
case WM_COMMAND:
switch(wParam)
{
case IDOK:
return 0;
case IDCANCEL:
EndDialog(hDlg, 0);
}
switch(wParam)
{
case IDC_BUTTON1:
ShellExecute(hDlg,
"open",
"C:\immagine1.jpg",
NULL,
NULL,
IDC_STATIC);

break;
}

switch(wParam)
{
case IDC_BUTTON4:
ShellExecute(hDlg,
"open",
"C:\log.txt",
NULL,
NULL,
SW_SHOWDEFAULT);
break;
}






}
return 0;
}


instead using the shell execute that open the default viewer???
Thank you all!

As developer, you're working at a lower level point of view. If you want
to display an image, basically you'll have to open the image file, read
its data, then draw it on a window.

Here, you'll need to load the image file using LoadImage function or GDI+
API. Then use WM_PAINT to draw the image when the control needs to be
"painted".

You should have the MSDN library handy for reference.

There are plenty of methods to load a JPG (IShellImageDataFactory,
"AtlAxWin" class, OleLoadPicture(), IImgCtx, GDI+, etc..)
