the "Open" Icon

hello,
is there any way to load the familiar windows Open (or Browse) icon without finding the specific icon file?

thanks!

The Windows dlls have icons if you know the index number. Google for Windows Dll icons.
One that has icons is Shell32.dll but there are a bunch. You should be able to find a guide or at least a partial list.


Here's something I found to get you started:

Is it really safe to assume that the same icon will be in the same Windows DLL under the same index for each version of the OS ?

Or were you planning to copy it, in which case I'd be interested to know if that would be legal for me to do or what copyright issues are there?
