My animated icon thingy is still 16 bit.

Instead, i found a 32bit program I wrote as an example for albert shan --
it is a simple "bitmap icon" control.  It is actually a good
sample because it also shows how to use the "CTLDATA" *.rc
statment,  as in something like:

        CONTROL         "", IDU_FOO, 30, 51, 30, 25,
"MyButton", WS_VISIBLE
                        CTLDATA 100


You can freq it from here as ALBERT.LZH (<40k).

If I find some time I'll try to clean up the animated icon thing.
