:-) Thats the nice thing of using an Assembler : No programming-language 
provided wrappers around anything, you have to (understand and) write all of 
them yourself.

... which is also its downside.

But with me being me I normally have little problem with that.  Even though 
that leads to problems as my current one.

If you have ever used a List- or TreeView showing icons (including 
sorting-direction arrows and tickboxes) than you have used an ImageList.
