I have an application I'm building under VS2003. It uses several custom-drawn lists and loads multiple icons from ICO files for use in those lists. When I run the app under VS2003 or in the Release folder I get the icons and the graphics measurements I want, but when I copy the EXE to the staging folder for the release build itself and run it I get some of the icons appearing missing (even though they're there), some of them are drawn as if the GDI is stretching them, and the measurement of the lists (which is scaled by the LOGPIXELSY device cap) is much narrower. It almost seems as if VS2K3 is giving me one DC and the app running standalone is giving me another.
