OpenCV : How to display a picture when clicking button in a form

Hi, I have made a C++ win32 console application in VS 2008. I open an image in a window. I want to achieve the same result by clicking a button on a form and the image appearing in a picturebox for instance pictureBox1.

So, I made a C++ windows form project and pasted this code in the public area, and it gave me a heap of errors. Do I need a toolkit or something to make the GUI stuff work ?

I really dont know how to make it work for something this small, and I would like to know how.

CODE

#include "stdafx.h"

#include "highgui.h"





int _tmain(int argc, _TCHAR* argv[])
{

const char* imagename = "lena.jpg";

cv::Mat img = cv::imread(imagename); // Matlab style cvLoadImage another function call
if(img.empty())
{
    fprintf(stderr, "Food not load image% S\ n", imagename);
    return -1;
}

if( !img.data ) // Check for correct loading images
    return -1;

cv::namedWindow("image", CV_WINDOW_AUTOSIZE); // create a window
cv::imshow("image", img); // display images

cv::waitKey();

return 0;
}

Many Thanks
