Extracting Icons from Exe's Dll's Ico's into a ListImage Control

 Extracting Icons from Exe's Dll's Ico's into a ListImage Control

Does anybody know the steps required to extract an Icon from an exe etc if
you know the exe name/location and the index of the icon.

It seems the ExtractIcon API would be the first step, retrieving the handle
of the icon.  But what then? LoadIcon???

NB: VB4 Pro on Win95 & NT3.51/4.

Has anybody seen a document on the full procedure or a code listing of this
anywhere?

On the www.inquiry.com website, ask the VB Pro section, it has a paragraph
about using extract icon and then saving the icon.  But it says to refer to
the iconwrks.bas file which I guess contains all the functions for such a
procedure.  But this is part of the vb3 installation.

Any Ideas?

TIA
Greg
