Armin: I see what you are saying... however, I may have been 'dumb'
about this whole thing... Once I have loaded a DLL, and I know what the
form is, and have a reference to it (i.e. a variable), wouldn't it be
easier to simply reference that forms .Icon property and grab the
icon?? Then I can convert it to a bitmap, picture, whatever....

If the icon is embedded as a resource, have a look at
System.Reflection.Assembly.GetManifestResourceStre am

No, it is actually a part of the form - i.e. I set the form's ICON
property to be an icon file.
Maybe I should word this differently - since I know how to access a
form dynamically - How would one 'get' the icon of a Windows form
via VB?
Set the Icon in the Form designer, then have a look at the "Windows
Form Designer generated code" region to see how the resource is
loaded.
