Hi,

Using VISTA Beta2 and now also RC1 ExtractIcon() doesn't appear to work
properly.
This has always worked (Win95 - XP)

I load one or two icons (32x32, 16 colours) from each dll that is found in a
certain directory.
A flag icon for each language dll.

Only for 1 dll, and only for one of the two icons inside, the function
ExtractIcon() appears to work.

The icon inside is (as far as I can see) exactly the same as the others
(32x32, 16 colours).

Anybody an idea why VISTA is so picky here ?

The function simply doesn't provide a handle, it returns NULL.
