whizkid123 Posted January 7, 2003 Posted January 7, 2003 This is not related to .net in particular other than the fact that the software that i'm developing is on .net, but can anybody tell me where can I get the bmp / gifs of all the folder Icons that appear in Outlook Express, Lotus Notes like for Inbox, Outbox, Drafts, Sent Items etc etc...??? thanx!

*Experts* Nerseus Posted January 7, 2003 *Experts* Posted January 7, 2003 In .NET, you can use File-Open on the DLLs and EXE of Outlook Express (or any other EXE or DLL for that matter). .NET will show you the resources, including Icons and Bitmaps. The one you probably want for Outlook Express is msoeres.dll, in the Program Files\Outlook Express folder. I don't know about copyrights on these images, but I would assume you'd need MS's permission. -Nerseus Quote "I want to stand as close to the edge as I can without going over.

whizkid123 Posted January 7, 2003 Author Posted January 7, 2003 I'm sorry but am really new to .Net. I've used the file open function to open the dll but then how do see the contents of the dll, what files that are available in that etc... I've tried the filestream class but with no success... can you please help and elaborate on how to access the file...? thanx! Quote
*Experts* Nerseus Posted January 7, 2003 *Experts* Posted January 7, 2003 I mean open in the VisualStudio IDE, not programmatically. That was just to get them out of the DLL and into a file of your own. I'm not sure how to get them out of a DLL at runtime... -Nerseus Quote "I want to stand as close to the edge as I can without going over.
