Hi all,

Do you have an idea about how to modify the icon folder ?

Not possible.

Hi Doudou2010,

Thank you for posting and we are glad to help with you.

As for the problem, just as Ken Slovak said, it is not possible to custom the icon folder. And here is the same problem with yours: http://social.msdn.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/vsto/thread/ff38ae12-44c6-4744-bd9b-56e840607ba8

I hope it can help you and thank you for your understanding.

Hi Bruce,

Thank you for your confirmation.

Maybe there is another way because I have a folder with a different icon by folder, I notice also that the display folderName is strange.

The display folderName as an extension (e.i. DisplayFolderName.ABDCE), this extension is visible when the icon is not displayed and of course this extension is not visible when the icon is displayed.

I know also that this addin as been build with VB6.

An idea ??

Thank you.
