The 2 icons I sent were made with with Axialis so I am sure they are OK and they both work on my machine. I think there is something wrong with your Vb6 installation. Wouldn't hurt to try to reinstall SP6 to see if that corrects the problem. Reinstalling Vb6 from scratch is also fairly quick.

the thing is that present ICO worked
Let me send you one that works and can u review it to see its structure?
I cant seem to send the ICO....is there way I can send it to u?

If the Icons I sent don't work there then there must be something wrong with your Vb6 installation, otherwise why are they working here.

Ok...let me try reinstall SP6

Its not SP6. I found out why my previous programmer icon worked. He used an application called "Any to Icon" and I ran it and it worked excellently.

I don't how this works, but you've been very patience with us and helped a lot, so we'll give you the points.

Thanx to all

I found this site http://converticon.com/ to also convert and nothing. I used an icon from stevepicks link and copied my image there and converted back to ICO, nothing.
Am I missing something?
