Hi Larry.

>You could embed the pictures and use FileToStr()/StrToFile() to export them out of the app just before you load them into the ImageList and then delete them.

Unfortunately, that won't work directly because, for a reason that escapes me, an image file is stored in an EXE with the full path as it existed on the development machine. So, using something like COPY MYIMAGE.BMP TO TEMPFILE.BMP fails with a "File D:\MyDevelopmentDirectory\MYIMAGE.BMP doesn't exist" because D:\MyDevelopmentDirectory doesn't exist on the user's system.

The solution is to load the images into the memo field of a table included in the EXE and copy them out of there.
