Some icons and bitmaps come with vb as you know. They are
mostly useless. Most of the other icons are imbedded in the
programs that use them. You can strip these out with certain
software.

For simple symbols try the Marlett font

Eg, try setting the font to marlet and setting the caption
to 3,4 or 7 (Ok so the 7 is the wrong way round but have a
play, you mught find somthing useful)
