Hi all

Require gradient effect on dialog title bar, same effect as used in the
microsoft Word title bar blue fading to black. I can only assume this can
be achieved by using an API.
which one though?

also want to know how to get non standard ICO file displayed in a dialog.
as in the word Microsoft  displayed  in the top left hand side of  the word
application.
surely this is not a standard 16x16 or 32x32 icon

any help appreciated

regards

david
