right been looking around and saw some information.

do you think this makes sence know

you can use the path and FILE name of an icon file which has the ico extention

example> d:\program files\plus\themes\john.ico,0
the 0 SHOWS it is icon 1 in the file

so if i where to do something simalar like = c:\my icons\recycle bin.ico,0 for the EMPTY value data

and then ....................................... .... = c:\my icons\recycle bin.ico,1 for the full value data.

please tell me what you think, before i try it.

O AND THANKS FOR FINDING THAT OUT FOR ME, AND I WILL LET YOU KNOW HOW I GOT ON..................... No. You don't need to attach any numbers.
You navigate to:
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\CLSID\{645FF040-5081-101B-9F08-00AA002F954E}\DefaultIcon
then...

put a path to the image (d:\program files\plus\themes\john.ico) as a value for "default", and "empty", and a path to different image as "full" value. Don't forget about quotation marks.
great thanks for that broni.

changing icons through regedit WORKS fine now, but one more little thing, you say don't forget about the quotation marks. i take it you mean don't put them in............anyway i did not.

O by the way whats the weather like up there this time of yearI'm glad, it worked
