ActiveX icon properrty

I am trying to make an Icon property for my ActiveX control but I have a problem : I make the property and I have it "As Picture". Then when the common dialog is shown it is supports and shows all picture files. All I want to show is ico and cur files. I tried to put it "As Icon" but there isn't that type.

Thanks

I don't mean the toolboxbitmap. I want to make my own property "As Icon" or something like that...

Probably, u must set filter for the Filter Property of common dialog box before u show it...set the filter to "*.ico"
This might help...

Unfortunatelly I don't make the common dialog to set a filter... When you do something like this :
VB Code:
Public Property Get Icon() As Picture
    Set Icon = m_Icon
    Set Picture1.Picture = m_Icon
End Property
 
Public Property Set Icon(ByVal New_Icon As Picture)
    Set m_Icon = New_Icon
    Set Picture1.Picture = m_Icon
    PropertyChanged "Icon"
End Property
and I have it "As Picture" the common dialog automatically is created and has a filter for all picture files. I want to limit that to ico and cur files.

Thanks

Unfortunatelly neither do I have any... Since I can't declare it As Icon that I would like... :( . I am still open to suggestions though...
