Inserting an image into an Image ContentControl

[Scott M]

Does anyone have some code where I can push an image object that I pull from
a webservice (as a byte array) into an Image ContentControl?

Thanks
Scott

Hello Scott,

I would like to know which ContentControl you are using. Did you use it in
the Office add-in or your are use some .NET control?

I'm using the picture content control that is on the developer tab. I'm
automating word from VB 2005.

Hi Scott,

Assuming we're talking about a Word 2007 ContentControl, you can

1. Put the image on the Clipboard, then use the Paste method

2. Save the image stream as a file, to disk, then use the
InlineShapes.AddPicture method

3. Convert the byte array to the required (base64, I think) XML code format
required by the Ecma OpenXML file format (see OpenXMLDeveloper.org) and put
that into a Custom Part associated with the content control.

I really didn't want to persist it to disk. I did find a solution online.
If I remember Monday I'll post the code that I ended up using so everyone
can see.
