Daft question time…
Can I add an icon to a menu option? I can't seem to do it but maybe I can't see the wood for the trees.
TIA

Hi Tim,
You can't do this easily in OI. You *could* do it via subclassing I guess and maybe even with an OCX ( try here for a start), but it's not something I've looked at myself.

Tim, it involves the GDI32.DLL graphics display routines and resizing and imbedding the bitmaps dynamically - basically replacing most of the native menus with your own handler to insert the icons and relocate the text / menus.
You can see the code required to do this (in VB) at

Not for the feint-of-heart!

Hmmm of course it depends what you're trying to achieve AND depends on how it is being rendered… oh well…
