Jacque Thanks very much for your note.
I don't quite understand. I have several bitmaps in the same file (I sent you a copy of it for your library a few months ago, you may remember). All I've done is add 2 more resources. MI is managing to run my app. And gets as far as the new icons then crashes, but not before displaying the others in the resource. Anyway, I've got rid of any other copies on the dll and now I get the error: "Bad Height for for bitmap 314. Unable to load external icon resource". Well I've double-checked that this is indeed 32 X 32, all my resources are ordered small-big (so the small one, 313 in the updated version of the resource and the sample code since yesterday) comes first and MI does not object to it - only the larger. As I said, the res. File was working fine up until I added the extra bitmaps. BTW, how would I give the full path to the file? In other words, where and how do I reference this res. File in my code? There IS no reference to the res. File except in the generation of the button pads, as far as I know/can remember. Please can you give any further advice?

In some locations, there should be not any trouble because MI is looking in some set directories, but in other cases and particularly on a network, there may be some troubles. The ideal would be to give the full path to the file. As I do not think there is an ideal and an universal solution, check different locations: in the same directory as the application, as the miresNNN,dll file (probably the MI main directory).
