This article was previously published under Q152582 SUMMARY
An .FRX file is a binary data file used to store binary information for
the form (.FRM) file with the same file name.
MORE INFORMATION
Some controls, such as the PictureBox and Image controls, have properties
that use binary data as their values. Visual Basic stores the binary data
in an .FRX file with the same file name as the Form file. The .FRX file is
a proprietary format.
If your project contains .FRX files, you should include these files with
the corresponding .FRM files. A form containing binary information but
lacking the associated .FRX files will not function correctly.
REFERENCES
For a good description of what the .FRX file is and how it works, please
refer to the Binary Property Values section of the Appendix A: Form and
Project File Formats chapter of the Programmer's Guide.
