Browsing for image

[ruudboy]

Im using:

OpenFileDialog1.Title = "Select your image"
        OpenFileDialog1.InitialDirectory = "C:"

        If OpenFileDialog1.ShowDialog = Windows.Forms.DialogResult.OK Then

            PictureBox1.Image = New System.Drawing.Bitmap(OpenFileDialog1.FileName)

        End If

for browsing an image but i want to create a filetype so i have to use OpenFileDialog1.Filter but it wont work.
I've used:

OpenFileDialog1.Filter = "Foto's (*.jpg,*.bmp,*.jpeg,*.png,*.wmf,*.gif)|*.jpg|*.bmp|*.jpeg|*.png|*.wmf|*.gif"

How can i make it work?

i figured it out i have to use

OpenFileDialog1.Filter = "Foto's (*.jpg,*.bmp,*.jpeg,*.png,*.wmf,*.gif)|*.jpg;*.bmp;*.jpeg;*.png;*.wmf;*.gif"

How can i make the picture that the user choose fit in the picturebox????

(picture width must be 100% picturebox width)

Edit: I have to use PictureBox1.SizeMode = PictureBoxSizeMode.StretchImage

Private Sub ButFoto_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles butFoto.Click

OpenFileDialog1.Title = "Selecteer een foto"
OpenFileDialog1.InitialDirectory = "C:"
OpenFileDialog1.Filter = "Foto's (*.jpg,*.bmp,*.jpeg,*.png,*.wmf,*.gif)|*.jpg;*.bmp;*.jpeg;*.png;*.wmf;*.gif"

If OpenFileDialog1.ShowDialog = Windows.Forms.DialogResult.OK Then

Try
pbFoto.Image = New System.Drawing.Bitmap(OpenFileDialog1.FileName)
pbFoto.SizeMode = PictureBoxSizeMode.Zoom
Catch ex As Exception
MessageBox.Show("U heeft een incorrecte foto gekozen.", "Incorrect", MessageBoxButtons.OK, MessageBoxIcon.Warning)
End Try
