In vista you can Right Click the desktop select "Properties", click "Change Desktop Items" in the left hand corner, and then select the icons you want. I thought that maybe there is a way to do it by calling that, or maybe a way to do it in the registry.

View 2 RepliesI have an icon in my resource and I call it using
Dim
MyIcon As Icon = My.Resources.Myiconname
but I would like to display this icon into the form and I can't find the way to do it.
i'm developing an application that extracts all the icons of a .exe file or a .ico file. the ExtractAssociatedIcon in System.Drawing.Icon only do this for the first icon which is 16x16. I would be able to extract the other formats like 64x64 or 128x128. I know that there is a Windows API that may help me, but i don't know how to call its methods or even how to use that.

View 1 RepliesI have a problem: I have got an application that is mainly control by a tray icon and I can't show the window unless I click the icon, but the client computer has set the system not to show the icons in the tray area. So can I write a small app to act like a hand-make system tray? That means I have to get all the icons in the tray area and be able to send the mouse events to the icons and let them response to their own program.

[Code]...
Apparently, there is some kind of "bug" or "feature" in 64-bit Windows that prohibits a 32-bit app from "seeing" certain icons. Testing this is simple:Create a basic Windows Form app on a 64-bit machine.In the Project Properties, go to Compile > Advanced Compile Options > Target CPU. Set Target CPU to "x86".Add a button to your app that triggers an OpenFileDialog. Run the app and click the button to open the OpenFileDialog.Browse to: C:UsersDefaultAppDataRoamingMicrosoftWindowsStart MenuProgramsMaintenance
You should see the "Backup and Restore" shortcut, but its icon will be a blank white sheet. (If you don't see it there, it might be in C:Users[MyUser]AppDataetcetcetcMaintenance).
Now, close your app... go back to Project Properties > Compile > Advanced Compile Options > Target CPU and set Target CPU back to "AnyCPU" (this will cause it to run as 64-bit).Run the app and browse to the same folder. Now "Backup and Restore"s icon will be visible.This happens on all 32-bit apps. I tried it in Firefox (using "Open File...") and it can't see that icon (and many others) either. as a result of this behavior, when I try to extract icons from files when running under 32-bit, it produces an error. If I run the same code under 64-bit, it works just fine. running my app as 64-bit isn't an option. I'd literally quit programming if I weren't able to use Edit-and-Continue, and for some brilliant reason, 64-bit apps can't Edit-and-Continue, so I make them all in 32-bit).
I wasn't sure whether to post this here or in the VB Express forum, so sorry if I picked the wrong place.where I can find the icons that are used in the toolbox in this IDE?

View 1 RepliesI'm working with VS2005 Pro. When I show the toolbox to add a control to the form all controls display the same icon. The icon changes from one session to the next, but remain the same as long as I have the IDE open. I've applied all updates and service packs and the problem persists. It doesn't stop me from adding the correct control, but does make it a bit more time consuming finding the right one.
