    i am just doing
    me.icon=app.path & ("someicon.ico")
    in the form load.
    how can this black bkgrd be removed ,so that my icon looks same in the form load as it looks when viewed in any image viewer.

    The Icon should be 16x16

    ic ould be because its being squeezed to that size its loosing transparency.

    what app did u use to create it?
