I have asked a similar question, where in my app I use TImageList and
TtreeView, the problem was the treeview failed to show images. Alistair
told me that it was ComCtl32.dll version problem.
This time I was reported that, in a customer's machine, when viewing
the icon files *.ico in Explorer, the icon files do not appear as
pictures - they all show the standard icon.
Sorry to as silly question, as I can't reproduce the problem in my
office, nor can I contact the customer who has 8 hours time difference
from us.
Cheers
Yanbo

Good question - case of me learning more every day.
Thanks for bring that to
my attention.
