ya ok anyone know how to make a custom icon to use with VB?
Use an Icon Drawer. One of the best ones is Microangello which can be found at http://www.impactsoft.com
you can use every program like paint to draw an icon.
If it doesn't support saving as .ico file you can use Visual C++, it does (File/New/Files/Icon File) support it. Just use copy&paste
Here is a small method for converting other graphics to Icons.
- All you need to do is use the ExtractIcon method and load a Picture from a PictureBox into the MouseIcon of a hidden Control.
- Then Put the Control's MouseIcon into an ImageList and load the ListImage into another PictureBox.
- Now the format has changed to an Icon and you can use the SavePicture method to save it.
