Michael,

First, Read The Fine Manual  :)

which says:

"addLVItem ( object id, atom iIcon, sequence text )

iIcon: index of image from addIcon, addEuBmp, addXpm, or addDIB "

which means that you use either  the function addIcon, addEuBmp, addXpm, or
addDIB to make a pointer (?) to some visual element, ( an icon file, a
bitmap file, etc), and then put the variable holding that pointer/index into
the "addLVItem position indicated.

For example, in the Win32Lib demo, "ListTreeView.exw":

    closefolder = addIcon( extractIcon( "clsdfold.ico" ) )
    openfolder  = addIcon( extractIcon( "openfold.ico" ))

    folders &= addTVItem( TV, closefolder, openfolder, "Root", 0 )
    folders &= addTVItem( TV, closefolder, openfolder, "Windows 1",
folders[1] )

You may see from the above example that it's not quite as simple as I
described, in that if you're wanting to get an icon from a file, you first
have to use the "extractIcon" function to index to where it is in the file
(or something like that?), and then use "addIcon" to let Win32Lib know where
it is (or something like that?);  in any event, you can probably see from
the example how to proceed.

HTH,
Dan Moyer
