Hi All

I might have dreamt this up, but I'm sure I remember that if you developed
in Microsoft's dev tools, ie Visual Studio 6, then you were entitled to use
their icons in your apps.

Is this true or have I dreamt this up?

Thanks

That icons that are included with VB/VS, sure, you can use them. That's why
they're included. If you're not talking about those icons, then be more
specific about which ones you are talking about.

No you are not allowed to use their icons; however, they installed specific
icons under VS folder. What you are entitled to is listed here:

C:\Program Files\Microsoft Visual Studio\REDIST.TXT

Which lists all the icons included with VS that you can use in your
application. These include some icons MS used for Explorer and Office. But
this doesn't extend to other icons not included above, or other OS or Office
versions.

However, some standard icons can be created using LoadIcon(NULL, IconName).
This gives you the icon that the OS is using. These are usually the icons
displayed in message boxes, such as the question mark.
