VFP 8/9 can create menus with icons?

Must have missed that somewhere! I can't see much difference between menu building in VFP6 and VFP8 - where can I add icons to menu items?

But I digress... there were several ActiveX libraries a while back (mainly for VB users) which allowed use of an Outlook style icon bar and WinXP (not necessarily OfficeXP) menus.

Where have they all gone?

With VFP's greater support of ActiveX I was hoping a flood of 'I used this cool ActiveX control in VFP' type posts but it seems all us geeks have been stuck in 'xbase' mode instead of 'building cool Windows apps' mode.

(As an aside, someone said the VFP team was loath to adopt this feature by using a specific CTL32 version - would this be a restriction placed on the team by MS so as to ensure that Windows UI isn't as flexible in VFP as in, oh, say, VB?
