looking for a folder graphic to display in a form

[Paul]

I'm looking for a small graphic that looks like the yellow folder icon in
Windows Explorer Design View, to paste into one of my forms. I would also
like it to be the same size as those WinEx icons - that is, about the same
size as 8 or 10 point font.

In my system, they exist somewhere in C:\WINDOWS\system32\SHELL32.dll where
they're available for such things as desktop and task bar icons, but I don't
know how to extract them for use as display incons in my Access forms.

Can anyone tell me where I can get my hands on one of those graphics (or
icons) to copy into my form?

Thanks in advance,

Paul

Paul,
A handy tool to have is a freeware icon grabber/editor.
They can go into any file like a .dll or .exe and extract any icons
stored in those files... like Shell32.dll
Try Snapfiles.com under Freeware/Graphics and Photos/Icon Tools for
several freeware icon apps.

You could then extract the icon you want from Shell32.dll.
