Get the icon from an exe file

[Andrei Pociu]

Hello,

I posted a similar message a few days before but now things have changed a
bit: I'm simply trying to get the icon of an exe file (I have the path).
Till now I only managed to get the icons associated with file types (such as
doc, zip, etc.) which is fairly different from what I want.

Thank you,
Andrei

To answer my own question, I found a solution at:
http://www.vbaccelerator.com/home/N...etting_File_Icons_Using_The_Shell/article.asp.

And it doesn't only get the icons associated with file types (as I
originally thought), it also gets the icons from exe files.

Thanks,
Andrei P.
