Ok, im developing some software which requires file icons to display lists of files on a computer...

i don't want to use the system ExtractAssociatedIcon api's i'd rather load the icons for the file extensions out of a database... (as some systems may not have certain files associated etc)...

Does anyone have a database of file extensions & icons to go with the extensions that i can use?

Cheers in advance,
