I was reading through MSDN yesterday and something I read made me wonder - is there a resource file that is distributed with Windows from which I can pull icons for my PowerBASIC apps? I'm talking about plain old standard windows icons, such as save, open, etc.
I know I can extract icons from EXE/DLLs, and I've seen the content of the moricons.dll file. But I've never heard/seen of a pool of standard icons that is distributed with Windows.
Normally, I just use a collection of icons that I've built up over the years. With PowerBASIC I can put them in a resource file just fine - but it would be way cool if there was a pool of icons I could pull into my PowerBASIC apps by using files already on my users' PCs.
Has anyone heard of such a thing, something I've missed?
