# Deleting All Images in TX Text Control .NET for Windows Forms

In a [recent blog entry](https://www.textcontrol.com/blog/2006/06/14/ajax-document-viewer-sample-released/ "How to remove all tables in TX Text Control .NET for Windows Forms"), I showed how to remove all tables from the current document in TX Text Control .NET for Windows Forms. Today, I would like show the same with images. Like in the *TableBaseCollection*, images cannot be deleted in a *for each* statement. We have to use the specific enumerator that is responsible for images. In case of images, the *FrameBaseEnumerator* should be used.

The following VB.NET function removes all images in a document:

```
Private Sub removeAllImages()
    Dim myImageEnum As TXTextControl.FrameBaseCollection.FrameBaseEnumerator = TextControl1.Images.GetEnumerator
    Dim imageCounter As Integer = TextControl1.Images.Count

    For i As Integer = 0 To imageCounter
        myImageEnum.MoveNext()
        Dim currentImage As TXTextControl.Image = myImageEnum.Current
        TextControl1.Images.Remove(currentImage)
    Next
End Sub
```
