To use bitmaps or icons on a list control’s items, you should first create bitmaps or icons.

If you do not plan to use the Report view and you want to use bitmaps, you can create a

long bitmap that will made of small pictures of the same size. Each picture will be used

for each item. Normally, each picture should have a size of 16x16 or less. An example

would be:

This bitmap is made of 6 pictures of the same dimensions. If you do not plan to use the

Report view and you plan to use icons, create each icon with a 16x16 size.
