In RB you have to use the graphics object of a picture.

        mypicture.graphics.pixel(x,y) = mycolor

Hi, I am using Realbasic 2006 demo, I just converted a simple VB app

do this in RealBasic? and what control do I replace the Picture Box
with?

I've never used a Picture Box, but I imagine it's a rectangular control that displays a picture, right? In REALbasic you would use a Canvas control instead. A Canvas is actually much more than a picture box; it's sort of a do-everything control, that can draw whatever you want and respond to any user events. But it can also draw a picture as its "backdrop" (on which you can draw additional stuff, or not, as you wish). So you'd replace the PSet command with:

  Canvas1.Backdrop = somePicture

where Canvas1 is the name of your Canvas, and somePicture is a reference to some picture.

Best,

To not answer the OP's question, :-), VB's PictureBox is a graphical control that can accept all of the graphic functions that were in GW/Q/Quickbasic such as PSet, PreSet, Line, Circle, CLS, Paint, etc etc etc. I've been away from VB for a couple years, but I think you could also print text to it, too.
