Where can I find more icons for the toolstrips that match those used in VB
..Net etc.?

That's a good question. I'm interested too. I know you can get the the older
plain colored Office ones off of VStudio 6.0 Graphics folder.... I've always
relied on them. I'm not sure if .NET 2003 or 2005 install any of these.

Worse comes to worse you can lift them using PRNT-SCRN and editing them in
Paint.

I hope someone else has a better idea.

VS.NET 2002/2003 Professional and some of the "better" editions contain
VS6's graphics library.  For VS 2005 the graphics library has been updated
and now contains VS 2005 style toolbar icons.

I downloaded the free icons for the VS Express versions, but I'm not sure
they're a good fit with the existing ones.

Cool. In a zip file in Common7\VS2005ImageLibrary. Thank you. They do have
the "new" look. Nice.
Thanks again.

I hate self-installing exe's for things like "icons." I don't trust them.
I mean, at least Zip Exe's allow you to right-click on them and extract them
using WinZip without executing them. But these propritary exe's... maybe
InstallShield exe's or maybe not. I don't care... I don't use them.

I had no problem -- so far. Yes, I don't mind zips which are exes, but don't
like secret archive formats. Still the icons are worth having.
