Pete, I was afraid this was going to require some work. :) Ok here is some code:
Set imgTemp = imgNewList.ListImages.Add(1, , LoadResPicture(108, 1)) ' Open
tolLott.ImageList = imgNewList
Set btnOpen = tolLott.Buttons.Add(, , "Open", , 1)
1. imgTemp is my ListImage control.
2. imgNewList is my ImageList control.
3. "108" is the index for one of my icons.
I'm not sure what I was doing wrong before, but this code actually works. Now the problem I have is my icon is too big and the
caption/description is not showing. I tried setting the height and width properties of "btnOpen", after it was added to the toolbar,
but got the error "property is read- only."
I believe the open icon is the standard one that comes with VB and other MS products. Not sure what the default size is 16x16?
