I am using the TrayIcon control with a development tool which uses VBScript to manipulate the properties on the panel.
Refering to the documentation for the TrayIcon control I see that the Icon property expects a "Picture" object. The code sample only demonstrates using the VB form's icon, but I want to set the icon as part of the application's configuration. I have tried using the VBScript LoadPicture function but get a type mismatch error. TrayIcon1.Icon = LoadPicture("C:\256.ico") I also tried using the image manager control without success. Set MyPicture = CaptionImageManager1.Icons.GetImage(1,16) What type is the Icon property and how can I populate it on the fly from a file on disk? thanks, matt |

Thanks Aaron,
I was not using the CreatePicture method. This VBScript works fine. TrayIcon1.Text = "Desyntime 2.0" CaptionImageManager1.Icons.LoadIcon "C:\DesynTimeUpdated\DesynTime\256.ico", 1, 0 Set TrayIcon1.Icon = CaptionImageManager1.Icons.GetImage(1, 16).CreatePicture(xtpImageNormal) TrayIcon1.MinimizeToTray AD.Field("WindowL<WindowHandle>") TrayIcon1.ShowBalloonTip 2, "Desyntime is still running", "Click the icon to show the window again", 1 Matt |
