Good morning.
I'd like to know if I can use for free the animations, the bitmaps and
the icons inside the archive VS2005ImageLibrary.zip in the installation
path of VB2005 C:\Program Files\Microsoft Visual Studio
8\Common7\VS2005ImageLibrary, for developing my application, without
any further royalty nor license, beyond the licensed copy of VB2005.
Thanks

See the "redist.txt" file in the "C:\Program Files\Microsoft Visual Studio
8\" folder. This file reads:

One or more of the files located in the .zip file below may be distributed
subject to the license terms for the software and the additional use terms
described in the .zip file.

VisualStudio2005ImageLibrary.zip

_____________________________________________________


The "redist.txt" is also mentioned in the VS 2005 EULA (eula.txt):

----- cut -------

distribute in programs you develop if you comply with the terms below.

i. Right to Use and Distribute.  The code and text files listed below are

Image Library as described in the software documentation.  You may also
modify that content.  If you modify the content, it must be for use that is
consistent with the permitted use of the unmodified content.
