I am using mapinfo 10 and I have created dll with Pelles C with 16*16 and 24*24 bmp images. I placed the dll file into folder containing .mbx file but I get error :
Unableable to locate external icon resource.
Am I missing something.
Code:
Create ButtonPad "mybuttonpad" As
ToggleButton
ID 1001
Icon 8001 File "icon.dll"
Calling vendor_ButtonAction
HelpMsg "ICONTEST"
Show

Two things to try:
1. Add the full path to your icon.dll. I normally create a constant aĆ³utside the main procedure and refer to this for all my buttons:
2. If that doesn't fix it, try to use lower numbers for you icons, for instance 1 (and 2). Also I assume that you added the small icons as no 8001 and the larger as no 8002. Right?
