OK, so it was a 'surviving the realease build' issue.

Nops if He open command prompt as "run as admin" mode and run application than it means that its application is also run as admin mode. I believe in LOVE AT FIRST SIGHT... Bcoz I have loved my Mother... even since I opened my eyes...(ICAN)

The root cause is in the ico file. Do not use PNG (do not compress) for the 256 x 256 and 128 x 128 frames. Use BMP (uncompressed) instead. And the issue is resolved. Maxwell Chen

Rage wrote: Da mihi sis crustum Etruscum cum omnibus in eo. I'll have a pizza with everything on it. Sort of. Da = Give (could be imperative or a simple nominative). mihi = to me. sis = not really translatable in this context, but "of you" or "you are" -- it closes the deal on the verb being imperative (which "I'll have" isn't). "I'll have" would be "volo" or "accipiam". I can't believe I remember this completely useless information!

What happens after you return FALSE ? Otherwise, I think you just leaked a system object handle. Your program should technically close the mutex handle if you are not going to use it.

OK. Thanks for your suggestion. :) Maxwell Chen

I think the compiler links it to SetIcon(int, int) when I wrote SetIcon(NULL, NULL). So I casted it to force it invoke the correct version by SetIcon((HICON)NULL /* second arg has default val */). And it does not crash now. But there is still old residue icon. I just downloaded the demo source of CButtonST v3.9 from CodeProject, and modified the code to make it change icon dynamically. I do not see it have this problem. And I compared the source code of CButtonST between the demo source and my code. They look the same regarding the icon drawing portion. This is so weird ...

Thank you! ;) Maxwell Chen

An alternative for you is to send the WM_CNTEXTMENU[^] message instead...? Good luck, Iain. I have now moved to Sweden for love (awwww). If you're in Scandinavia and want an MVP on the payroll (or happy with a remote worker), or need cotract work done, give me a job! http://cv.imcsoft.co.uk/[^]

You can ask on (Adv. Win32 grp[^] from Windows Shell source code...

If I need to set this programatically using c#. How can I do this???? (or even show a user a message box to remind him the option of displaying the icon and clicking ok will show the icon)
