My prob is I add a single icon file with both a 16x16 and a 32x32 icons in it but it only sees the 32x32 icon, I tried to follow the steps I found here (UT) but it has a refrence to a Visual Studio image program that I didn't get with my VFP6.0, so I tried to use many other programs with the same result
( you don't have to worry about answering this, I could care less if the 16x16 icon is the basic VFP icon or a general exe icon, but I would like to fix it)

btw George is it me or are you the VFP guru?
