Take RsrcEdit and look at the contents of the System database. However, if you do use those, there is NO guarantee that they will be available on all devices or OS versions. On my Prism, the alert icons start at 10004 (information) and go to 10007 (the X). These also matched on an emulated Palm m505 using OS 4.0 and an emulated Palm III running OS 3.0. They are standard 'Tbmp' bitmaps, each one 16x16. On the newer ROM images, they are bitmap families with several bit depths. The System DB is always open, so you don't have open anything explicitly to fetch these resources. The built-in apps, like Memo Pad and Address Book, use these bitmaps directly. If you look at the MemoDelete.rsrc file, you'll see that the form asking for delete confirmation directly uses Tbmp 10005. Constructor for Palm OS even knows that the bitmap is a system one and shows the correct value. -- For information on using the Palm Developer Forums, or to unsubscribe, please see http://www.palmos.com/dev/tech/support/forums/
