In A2003 I did some experimenting with icons in tab pages. I found that:
- Access only accept icons that consists of the 16 windows colors
- light grey color turns into white when the tab page is selected

So, a lot custom icons aren't really suitable for the tab pages. I've google
but haven't been able to find specific 16-windows-color icons. Any
suggestions where I can find some?

Thanks,

Lars

Lars,
Download any of many free icon editing programs...
Download.com or Snapfiles.com
and "grow your own" icons.
Most of those apps can do any icon resolution.

Thanks Al. I have experimented with IconForge but creating good looking and
meaningful 16x16 icons with 16 windows color, isn't that easy.
