I'd say it's a dumb question... But so far I haven't been able to find a way:
I have some .ico... is there a way to use it INSIDE a WinForm? Like a simple
bitmap, but choosing which resolution (index) I want to display?

Thanks a lot.

Take a look at the 'Icon' class and its constructors and the
'IconBitmapDecoder' class.

Thanks a lot, Herfried, Icon.ToBitmap() works great! =)
