Hi,
Simplest code to determine presence of embedded icon. NO NEED TO EXTRACT, just looking for presence

Thank You

You are in luck, I happen to have such code :)

--- Code: Pascal [+][-]window.onload = function(){var x1 = document.getElementById("main_content_section"); if (x1) { var x = document.getElementsByClassName("geshi");for (var i = 0; i < x.length; i++) { x[i].style.maxHeight='none'; x[i].style.height = Math.min(x[i].clientHeight+15,306)+'px'; x[i].style.resize = "vertical";}};} ---uses Windows; function resenumtypes(hModule: HMODULE; lpType: LPSTR; lParam: LONG_PTR): BOOL; stdcall;begin result := true; if lpType = RT_ICON then begin PBoolean32(lParam)^ := true; result := false; //stop enumerating end;end; var h: hwnd; has_icon: boolean = false; begin h := LoadLibraryEx('C:\Windows\explorer.exe', 0, LOAD_LIBRARY_AS_IMAGE_RESOURCE+LOAD_LIBRARY_AS_DATAFILE); if h > 0 then begin EnumResourceTypes(h, @resenumtypes, LONG_PTR(@has_icon)); writeln('has icon? ', has_icon); end else begin writeln('cant open file'); end; readln;end.

I'm not sure if ANY icon is what is asked for or the actual program icon.
Your code looks for ANY icon (of I'm not mistaken)?

You can use ExtractIconEx for the actual program icon.

You can probably use the ExtractIcon function for this.

He didn't specify it has to be MAINICON ;)

No (s)he didn't but seeing that only the presence is requested it would make sense it would be the MAINICON.

Anyway, now both methods are documented in this topic ;)
