ExtractAssociatedIcon and 48x48 Icons
Hi all
Is there any way to extract the 48x48 icon?
I have a function like this now (pseudo code)
hIcon=ExtractAssociatedIco
DrawIcon(Picture.Hdc,hIcon
ListView1.Add Picture1.Picture
With kind regards
Ramses

Do you want the icon to be resized to 48 x 48 or want to extract icons that are 48 x 48?

This, I already tested before posting this question. The extracted icon is 32x32 and not 48x48

You're right zzzzzzzooc!
This shows the 48x48 icon, and not a 32x32 icon blown up to 48x48
Only thing I noticed since starting with icons is that VB crashes a lot.
Only time that happened before with me, was when I was debuggin a program that uses subclassing and I forgot to turn the subclassing of when debugging. However, that's not the case here, so any idea what may cause this behaviour?

Depends on what API functions you're using and how. Such as my use of CopyMemory().. if I tried to copy from/to memory I couldn't (for whatever reason), it'd probably throw a "nasty error". It's really hard to narrow it down to anything without a lot of debugging though. Just remember to "clean up".. such as destroying any icons when you're done with them since they won't be released from memory otherwise.
Using this solution, I hope you fully read my prior notes. This might not suit your needs without a lot of tweaking. :) Anyways, good luck.

I did read your previous notes.
Thing is, I want to offer my users some shortcuts that already exists in a quick launch panel. So I will have to find a way to read shortcuts, but that's another question...
