| | I'm just now getting back on the PC. I guess the best thing to do, is try to re-install IconViewer again. I tried to install the 1st one listed at the top of the heap. When the error warnings popup, I'll make a pic and post it[them]. I'm sure you pros will recognize right-off what the problem is. Here I go. Be back soon. |

| | OK, I just tried again to re-install IV, and it now said that it was installed successfully. So I right clicked on a few desktop programs and folders, but only saw the usual icons. Didn't see any new icons. I guess this is how IV works, right? Right-click and go to PROPERTIES. That's what I did. Oh well.  |

| | You will only have the Icons tab available in the properties page of a file if that file has a icon library included in it. For example the C:\Windows\System32\imageres.dll file. |

| | OK. So if you have an Icons Tab in properties, I don't understand what the point of IV would be. Wouldn't icons be shown/listed in the Icons Tab anyway? If not, why would an Icons Tab be present, if you couldn't access the icons? I don't know, but maybe I'm just too thick.  |

| | Ah! I'm now reading all about Icon Viewer in the file iconview.chm contained within the IV Folder in Program Files. I'll figure it out now. I guess what happened yesterday, was I clicked on "setup".exe in the IV Folder, not knowing that it was already installed. Goofy guy, I am. That must have triggered the error flags. Thanks again, everyone, for the bother. Chipper  |

| | Chipper, Just to stop any confusion, for others, Iconviewer Adds the icons tab to file properties - it's not there in a default installation |
