I sent a message before that icons in TreeView component will not shown in
windows XP and I don't know why.
I find out that the icons in Tab control will not shown too.
Please tell me how can I fix this bug, is there a service pack for it or
not?(I already install windows XP service pack 2).

As I'm unable to duplicate your situation in a C# Windows app running under
Win XP, we'll need some details.
What project type and template are you using in Visual Studio? What version
and edition of Visual Studio are you using? Are you using the toolbox or are
you attempting to create the GUI in code?
Please provide details of exactly what you are trying to do and how you are
trying to do it. Then, readers here may be able to offer constructive
advice.
 
Ok.
I use Visual Studio.NET Enterprise architecture version 7.1.3088 and .NET
Framework 1.1(1.1.4322).
I opened a WindowsApplication template and drop a tab control and a TreeView
in the Form1.

And, can we assume that you've created an instance of the ImageList,
populated the ImageList object with icons, then associated the tabPage
objects you created in the tabControl with icons in your ImageList object?
 
Of course I told that I run this application under windows 2000 and windows
2003 server and work perfectly.

Actually, if you check your own previous messages in this thread, you'll
discover that your experience in other OS's is now revealed for the first
time.
So, please forgive me for asking such an obvious question, but I had no way
of knowing.
Your new information further reinforces my opinion that there is something
wrong with your installation of Visual Studio on the XP machine, as the
behavior you are experiencing cannot be reproduced on three different XP
machines here. The only difference is SP2 for XP is not on one of my three
PC's. What happens if you uninstall SP2?
In your situation, I'd consider first uninstalling and reinstalling the .NET
Framework. If no change, uninstall everything related to Visual Studio
and/or .NET.
 
I Reinstall windows XP and this time I only installed .NET
framework(redistribute version) but still doesn't work.
If you have windows XP please test this in your computer and if it works its
mean that my windows has problem.

Thanks

OK. I tried to duplicate your problem with tabs on three PC's running
Windows XP. One PC is on SP1a, the other two are on SP2. On all three, there
is no difficulty with the display of icons on tabs.
Before you leap to the conclusion that it's your XP, can you try your
application on another PC running XP?
There are many other possibilities. As I don't have your application here, I
cannot tell if there is something within the application itself (doubtful).
I also cannot tell if there is something unique about the PC you are testing
on that could be the culprit. For example, I had an application here for
designing CD labels. After installing a new version of that program, I
discovered that selected graphics refused to display in the preview. Turned
out to be a problem with outdated video card drivers on that one PC. You
just might have a similar situation.
Sorry not to have any better suggestions.
