I know that in this way it does't appear in Explorer, but if the icon included is 32x32x16, it appears if a shortcut is created in desktop (even it doesn't appear in Explorer). If the icon is 32x32x256, the icon doesn't show in shortcut in desktop. So, I've concluded that the 256 color icons are not supported in VFP.

BTW, I hope that you've noted Garrett Fitzgerald's reply about this subject. While I will try to test this (just to see if there's any other icon color depth that will work), knowing Garrett, I'm sure that he's correct in his statement and that only 16 color icons are supported. What I don't know is that if it's a VFP or Windows problem and I want to research that as well.
