Name an image in Imagelist

Question

Sir
I want to retrieve some images from database and store them in an Imagelist. I want to name or tag each image so that I can refer each image in another place by its tag or name
I tried the below code:
Friend Function getImage(ByVal ID As Integer, ByVal Terminal As String) As ImageList
Dim imgList As New ImageList
conn = New OdbcConnection(connectionString)
conn.Open()
sql = "SELECT Image, AutoId from Images where (ID='" & ID & "' AND Terminal='" & Terminal & "');"
da = New Odbc.OdbcDataAdapter(sql, conn)
Dim ds As New DataSet()
da.Fill(ds, "Image")
Dim dt As DataTable = ds.Tables("Image")
Dim drow As DataRow
If dt.Rows.Count <> 0 Then
For N = 0 To dt.Rows.Count - 1
drow = dt.Rows(N)
Dim imageData As Byte() = DirectCast(drow("Image"), Byte())
If Not imageData Is Nothing Then
Using ms As New MemoryStream(imageData, 0, imageData.Length)
ms.Write(imageData, 0, imageData.Length)
ms.Seek(0, SeekOrigin.Begin)
imgList.Images.Add(Image.FromStream(ms, True))
imgList.Images.Keys(N) = drow("AutoId") End Using
End If
Next
End If
Return imgList
conn.Close()
conn.Dispose()
End FunctionThe line   imgList.Images.Keys(N) = drow("AutoId")  does n't work. Please tell me how to do thsi??Regards

Answer 1

The imagelist offers no advantages for this usage.
I disagree - it depends on what he needs it for.
Some controls require an ImageList (if it's to show thumbnail images) and the ImageList has a .ImageSize property
that will automatically re-size the images.
You may very well be right but until we know the intended use, I can't agree with your assertion.
Which, it is as old as Methuselah from before the generic collections did exist. In classes made with generic collections you can add everything.
