Hi,

is there a way to get a resource in a PB application ( embedded by PBR )
and save it to file? Background is, that MP 2009 cut-off a lot of icons
and I want to use the old ones ( MP 2006, 2004 ) beyond.

Is there a way? Maybe with Win-API?

regards

Benjamin

MP? The old PowerBuilder icons are available on CodeXchange and are free
for use. If you're referring to the icons used in some application that
was written in PowerBuilder, then simply acquiring the icons may not be
enough for you to *legally* use them.

If you don't fear copyright infringement, then you can look for tools
like Microangelo or Icon Developer which provide limited abilities for
extracting images from files.

Resources included via a pbr are stored in the exe / pbd in the same
way that compiled pcode is stored. You will need a tool that
understands the internal binary format of pbd's to extract them.
