How to put 48 X 48 - 32 bit icons in the interface...

Hye,
I am Jigar Mehta, I want to ask how can we put our own 48 X 48 - 32 bit
icons in the interface like near password field, I want to put Password
Icon. The icons are created with Alpha support (that of Windows XP icons)...
So, which control to be used for putting these icons on the form...

I have tried putting Image Control and added my icon as resources in the
project but while I import that icon, it gets bad black border instead of
shadow of the icon (I think that VC++ does not support alpha importing..)

So, any help will be appreciated...

The VS.NET tools don't support Alpha (or it doesn't work), BUT you can load
the image manually into an ImageList and paint it. The ImageList DOES
support Alpha, but most other controls don't.
