    Exclamation Icons/BMPS and MFC Menus...

    Ok, this may be a real "newbie" question to most; but how do i get 256 color icons on my toolbar? I've scoured msdn for information but I can't find anything closely useful.

    Can anyone help?

    I assume this is an MFC toolbar

    As long as you have a 256-colour icon available for that resource it should work, it did for me (although this was a while ago before I stopped using MFC)
    I refuse to tie my hands behind my back and hear somebody say "Bend Over, Boy, Because You Have It Coming To You".

    Sorry Parksie,

    This didn't work. It is an MFC toolbar and I have about 15 256 8bit BMP's imported as both icons and bmps, but I still cannot get anything more than 16 colours out of the app! What gives?
