Hmmm....looking through the win32ui documentation, I thought maybe
something like:
win32ui.SetResource(win32ui.LoadLibrary('some_dummy_dll_with_bitmap_resources.dll')
)
...might do the trik. It doesn't appear to work. Does anyone know if I am
tryiing to do something that is not possible?
Thanks,
Mark.
