File Icons

Does anyone know of a way to add the file icon next to some text in a
listbox?
Similar to the blue ones in the file open dialog

It probably would be possible using API functions to paint each item of the list, however a much easier way would be to use a ListView and ImageList instead. If you want to use the drawing files icon, extract them from the app. file and load them into the ImageList. Finally associate them to the ListView.Icons and SmallIcons properties.

 

True but it assumes he has vb - vba does not come with a listview or
imagelist controls. If you need the listview and imagelist, checkout
