I am attempting to dynamically load file type association icons into the ImageManager. This means some times the icon is a full path to a .ico file or it can be indexed into a library file or EXE. In this latter case I use ExtractIcon to get the handle. That works fine. It isn't until I try to add the icon to the ImageManager via .AddIcon that I have trouble. ExtractIcon provides me with a handle and I assign that to the ImageManager.AddIcon property. Checking the Watch window I see that the .Count property for the ImageManager.Cont property has increased by one. This leads me to believe that it was successful. When I then attempt to add the icon from the Imagemanager to the ReportRecordItem that trouble occurs. It simply doesn't appear --even after a .Populate call.

iPos% = InStrRev(sIconPath$, ",")
        
If iPos% Then
        
      iIdx% = Mid$(sIconPath$, (iPos% + 1))
             
      sIconPath$ = Left$(sIconPath$, (iPos% - 1))
             
      sIconPath$ = Replace(sIconPath$, """", "")
             
       If gFSO.FileExists(sIconPath$) Then
             
                 hIcon& = ExtractIcon(frmMain.hWnd, sIconPath$, iIdx%)
        
        End If

End If

lIconIdx& = (Me.ImageMan.Icons.Count + 1)

Me.ImageMan.Icons.AddIcon hIcon&, lIconIdx&, xtpImageNormal

Me.rc.Records.Record(lIdx&).Item(1).Icon = lIconIdx&

I have no trouble using .LoadIcon. Is there something wrong with the code above? Should it not work? Any insight would be greatly appreciated!
