Getting system set icons (like the my computer icon) resolved:D

[Ultimasnake]

Hey peeps ,

I want to know how i can get system icons into my app , like the current set icon for My computer , or a folder and maybe even a certain file type.

I searched the web but didnt find any code for it.

I just need to get the image into a picture box and use it from there on :S

i found this code on the forum origionally, but made some edit's to it, etc to fix it up...

HIHY

just remember, you need to substitues the WinNT paths for the current windows paths

IE:

c:\WinNT\

needs to be

Environ("windir") [better to use the API to get the windows directory though, since environment variables can be deleted ETC]
