Building a slot machine

[villagecirc]

I enjoy building a slot machine in each new platform that I program in. Anyways I am trying to change the imageurl in the code behind file using C#. I know the code for a regular windows aplications is in this format ImageName.Image = Image.FromFile("FileName"); so I figured ImageUrlName.ImageUrl = ImageUrl.FromFile("FileName"); but that is not it. I know I can change in the script tag but that kind of defeats of the purpose of a code behind file. Anyways in anyone happens to know the correct syntax for changing an imageurl with code through the code behind file let me know. [8]

Please Diseregard My last post as I was able to answer my own question it was a very simple layout that simply involved this format
PicturBoxName.ImageUrl = "path and file name";

Now why would I think it could be that simple$

please note that I forgot to delete the denoted // text in my load methdod and all those variables can and should be disregarded....



// // Put user code to initialize the page here
// this.imgSlot1.ImageUrl =" /MyWeb/slotpics/pic1.jpg";//test to fill picture box
// //form variables
// const string PicPath = "/MyWeb/slotpics/pic";
// int Pic1 = 9;//represent picture Number for fist picture box
// int Pic2 = 8;//2nd pic value
// int Pic3 = 7;//3rd pic value
// this.imgSlot1.ImageUrl = PicPath + Pic1 + ".jpg";//test variable substitutes for pathing
// //int Credits = 500;
// //int CreditsPlayed = 25;

all that is not necesary....
