    I have a VB app that uses lots of command buttons, all with a graphic depicting its use. Over time, I've lost reference to the original source of the graphics. Since the graphics are stored as a part of the VB app, is there any way to retrieve them so they can be saved for future use?

    Unhappy I don't think this is possible

    If you load an old project, click on the command button, and then look at the icon property, it doesn't point to where you original got it. Damn painful......

    if you still have your vb app, you can still retrieve your graphics simply by running the app, hitting the printscreen key on your keybourd and cutting and pasting each pictures using an image editor like painbrush. however the image quality of your graphics will be lower.

    It's also possible to copy/paste the command buttons from one project to another but i'm not sure if the graphic will cary with it.

    You can use the SavePicture method and save all of your graphics.

    Code:
    SavePicture Picture1.Picture, "C:\MyPicture.bmp"
