How do you save an icon in vb so it is recognised properly? I know you can save it this way: SavePicture Picture1.picture, C:\What.ico

but when I save an icon like that, nothing that supports icons recognises it, say I open it up in a icon editing program it will either peform an illegal op or say a message like invalid file or icon or something. Even when you try to make your icon be that icon in vb it give you and error. Is there a way to save it so it is recognised as a proper icon?

Also how to you place an icon on the clipboard
i tried this, clipboard.setdata picture1.picture
but that didn't work.

And is there an easy way to filp a picture in a picture box?

thanx in advance
