i cant understand why you cant get an icon in to a picturebox, this is an example in vb.net ...

PictureBox1.Image = Image.FromFile("C:\App.ico")
'/// from an exsisting file ^^^
'///Or from an embedded file in your app .....
Dim streamPath As String = Application.ProductName & ".App.ico" '/// path to embedded icon file.
PictureBox1.Image = Image.FromStream(Me.GetType.Assembly.GetManifestResourceStream(streamPath))

or in C# ....

pictureBox1.Image= Image.FromFile("C:\App.ico");
 
path=Application.ProductName + ".App.ico";
pictureBox1.Image=Image.FromStream(System.Reflection.Assembly.GetExecutingAssembly().GetManifestResourceStream(path));

isn't my question clear !! i know i can use that plus different ways but i'm getting icons , do some processing then produce icon object . if converted to anyother object , it shows crap so , i need to load them in the picturebox as icon .

thanks for your reply.
