Private openFileDialog1 As OpenFileDialog
Private WithEvents button1 As Button
Private Sub InitializeDialogAndButton()
Me.openFileDialog1 = New System.Windows.Forms.OpenFileDialog()
Me.button1 = New System.Windows.Forms.Button()
Me.button1.Location = New System.Drawing.Point(53, 37)
Me.button1.AutoSize = True
Me.button1.Text = "Show dialog with custom places."
Me.button1.UseVisualStyleBackColor = True
Me.Controls.Add(Me.button1)
End Sub
Private Sub button1_Click(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As EventArgs) _
Handles button1.Click
' Add Pictures custom place using GUID.
