REALbasic uses the underscore character before names to mark items that
we are not supposed to see, such as special members of some framework
classes. They were visible in the autocomplete list in 2006r1, but now
that has been fixed.
In fact, the report "Allow variable or function names to begin with an
underscore"
<http://www.realsoftware.com/feedback/viewreport.php?reportid=pptwmkqh>
was closed with the evaluation "All identifiers beginning with an
underscore are reserved for internal use."
Apparently, RB2006 extended that restriction to external resources like
your images. A nice alert explaining what cannot be done and why would
not hurt though, especially since some things are not documented.

Import a BMP whose name begins with an underscore into a project and
although it is imported and its name appears in lists of icons for bevel
buttons, etc. the image does not appear in the Project tab. This worked
in RB2005. Now I've got a project in RB2006 with a half-dozen images I
can't access or delete.
