AddFolderIcon

[Stefan Krueger]

Put up a MessageBox to display the value of FOLDER_STARTMENU. Is it
correct? Are you using this constant in AddFolderIcon?

Yes I am using FOLDER_STARTMENU.

I have tried with a MessageBox and all parameters to AddFolderIcon are OK!
Also if I use the same string with CreateProgramFolder the correct string is
displayed in the Start menu. I tried with InstallShield 6.2 and that seems
to work correctly. Unfortunatly I need a fix now for 3 different
installation programs so rewriting it all to 6.2 is not really a solution.
