GetInstance Path

Hello All,

 I thought I had this going, but I hit a snag.

This line of code works and my image is added to the PDF:

iTextSharp.text.Image pdfImg = iTextSharp.text.Image.GetInstance(@"file:\\tul1ibo1\ibographics\bmp\SL_VODTxoma_IB.bmp");

But, this line of code fails:

iTextSharp.text.Image pdfImg = iTextSharp.text.Image.GetInstance("file:\\\\tul1ibo1\\ibographics\\bmp\\SL_VODTxoma_IB.bmp");

The above lines are just test code. The real line of code I’m using uses a variable for the filename:

iTextSharp.text.Image pdfImg = iTextSharp.text.Image.GetInstance("file:" + colValue);

I have defined the variable so that it reads like the first line that works – but it fails when I pass that variable as a value to GetInstance. Any ideas?

Thanks!

Sorry - this was a string parsing mistake on my part. It’s working now.

How do you defined and filled colValue ?    Please copy and paste the piece of code.
