Icon problem in .NET

[Mat]

I have icons, which i always use in VB6 but now in .NET, i can read error
"Code generation for property 'ImageStream' failed. Error was: 'Bitmaps
that are Icons can not be made transparent. Icons natively support
transparency. Use the Icon constructor to create an Icon.'


I don't understand what is wrong....

Please help

Hi,

Try something like this.

Dim bm As New Bitmap("c:\camera.bmp")

Dim ptrIco As IntPtr = bm.GetHicon

Dim ico As Icon

ico = Icon.FromHandle(ptrIco)

What exactly are you doing? Post the code which raises this
exception/error.
