Zubair.NET!

Hi, I am in a situation where I need to upload different File Types in
an application, and based on their MIME-Type, I need to show their
respective icons.

The question is: Does anyone know how to read Windows Icons (.ico) from
ASP.NET based on their MIME-Type and convert them to (.gif)

I need a urgent answer to this.

Thanks in anticipation!
 
I would suggest you simply extract the icons you want using any of the icon
extractors available, there are both free/shareway/commercial versions
available for that.

Then when you have them as .gif or .jpg it's a simple thing to display the
correct icon on your asp.net page.

The .ico format by the way is simply a bitmap (bmp).
