Good Morning,

I have an image to be displayed in the user control

for example i have an image of invoice.

i have a button in the form for editing the image.

upon clicking this "Edit Image" button i want to hide a part of image which displays Invoice#

I am getting this image in Byte format.

Is there anyway to acompalish this task or am i trying to do something which is not possible by .Net.

Please advice.

Thanks and Regards

Hi Dan,

I have gone thru the articles which u sent me , but in the articles the x and y coordinates are hardcoded.

i want to search for a perticular text on a image and mask it on the fly without giving the x,y coordinates. the program should identify its coordinates on the fly and mask it.

in other words i want to implement OCR(Optical character recognition), can u guide me on this please.

Thanks

This is definitely possible but it's not easy to explain in one post. You will need to learn a little about GDI+. Here is an excellent resource:
