Hi George

>My IconMaker in the download section can properly create a 16x16 and 32x32 icon in a single file from a single 32x32 icon. Note, however, that the 32x32 icon must be 16 colors.

I actually found a freeware tool on the web which did the trick. I was intrigued by the reference to the "image editor" shipped with vfp. I could find any sign of that. No matter, the fix worked and it is all sorted now anyway.

Thanks

Harry
