I too am having the same problem. I just ftp'd over some forms from a Solaris environment to Windows, and my icons have disappeared. I have tried everything posted here. I have even put individual path names in the property pallets of the buttons that need the icons. I have created new strings in the registry,
I have both the DB and the Forms on my PC. Are there any more suggestions?

Version of forms is 6i
and the OS is Windows 2000 Professional.
