Default Rotating Picture Control

Does anybody know where I can find the picture control that was used in Microsoft's Photodraw?

I am new to VB and I need a control exactly like that one. I have tried to create one using the picturebox control, but I can't figure out how to attach the knob to rotate the picture. I can rotate the picture using external text boxes, but it is much faster to just grab a knob and turn it until it looks right.

Any suggestions would help. I've been mulling this over for a couple of months and I am not getting in any closer to a solution.

If you can enter data into a text box to get the result that you want, the method you should use is to get a scroll bar or a spinner to generate the same values that you would type into the boxes, and to take the same action that you were doing with (I presume) a textbox and a "DoIt" button every time the value of the spinner or scroll bar changes value (_OnChange).
