Procedure LoadIcon String sIcon
Call Example
Send LoadIcon sIcon
Description
When the program is run it will first check to see if the icon is added to the program's resources and, if found, use it. If not, it will search for the icon using the program's DFPath paths.
When you send this message the cToolTipController's piIcon property stores the icon handle of the icon that is created by the ToolTip window.
Send this message when you wish to display an icon that is not one of the system icons. To use one of the system icons, set the piIcon property.
Icons cannot be displayed in a ToolTip unless the psTitle property is non-blank. If you send the LoadIcon message when psTitle is blank, the cToolTipController will automatically assign the psTitle property to "Title".
