Re: File Open dialog box uses default Desktop, Recent icons

"34"="C:\\WINDOWS\\icons\\Tangerine-Desktop.ico,0"

I've not tried overriding the shell icon "34", but if you're using an ico
file itself, there there is no need to mention the index.

The Recent documents folder icon can be changed by editing the
desktop.ini present in that folder.

Thanks very much. That worked great. One down, one to go. I've
got:

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion
\Explorer\Shell Icons]
"20"="C:\\WINDOWS\\icons\\Tangerine-Desktop.ico,0"
"34"="C:\\WINDOWS\\icons\\Tangerine-Desktop.ico,0"

It shows up fine in Windows Explorer, but not on the File Open
dialog.
