Hi,
I am trying to acces the icons used in microsoft powerpoint. I am able to
access the shell32.dll and access those icons for th OS but i also like to
access the icons that are used in powerpoint like the brush icon and paint
bucket. Does anyone know what dll these icons are located in? I have not
been able to find it.

Thank you

Which version of PowerPoint do you use? If you only need a picture of the
icon, you can use a screenshot program like SnagIt, www.techsmith.com. Or do
you want to access the icons programmatically?

I am using Microsoft Office 2003 so it would be powerpoint 2003.
I want to access them programmatically if possible.
My other idea was to take a screen shot of the icon, then recreate the icon
and add it to the shell32.dll.
but i thought if they were already avaliable to me why recreate them
