Hi,

I have a Control Library which shows a Form, and i would like to hev the
icon of the CallingAssembly to be shown on this Form. Does anybody knows how
to do this? I can't be able to get this Icon...
Even worse, I don't find how to get it in the application itself :-)

Does anybody has any hints,

Thansk a lot in advance,

Pieter

If Me.Owner Is Nothing Then
'set optionally your own icon
            Else
'set icon from the owner
                Me.Icon = Me.Owner.Icon

            End If

Hi,

Thanks for the answer, but it doesn't work. Me.Owner is for the parent Form,
not for the parent assembly..
It's the Application Icon that I need of the application that is calling the
Control Library...

Aha ,,, hmmm

well then try

Me.Icon = Drawing.Icon.ExtractAssociatedIcon("path to assembly")
