Drawing.Icon.ExtractAssociatedIcon - wrong sized icon

Hi Folks

(VS .NET 2005 on Windows XP...)

I'm using Drawing.Icon.ExtractAssociatedIcon to extract the icon from a
filepath etc. to be added to an imagelist used by a treeview.

Everything works fine but the treeview icon appears to be 32x32 squashed to
16x16 instead of the proper 16x16 icon which looks much better.

Anyone know a solution?

Cheers

Mark
