One thing I have noticed - and just to be careful of.
If i go in my solutions explorer and rename it. It messes up, and even by
fixing the file in question manually. Sometimes the Pictures / Icons do not
display anymore. Only solution I found ( which was faster for me ) was to
delete the rsex file and re-create it.
Otherwise, very happy. Works great - solved my problem of having duplicate
icons everywhere.

Thank you Armin,
That is what I was looking for.
I have a VB2003 book and it wasnt helpful at all, and I could not find
that simple method on google.
Much Appreciated.

>>Im really stuck on something.
My goal is to get away from Image Lists and to use a Resource file
instead. I followed an example and went to Properties of my project
and clicked on the resource tab.
Here I have found that I can add my images here.
But how do I create a Resource file that has a differnet
name...something like: MyIcons.rsex, so i can just put all my icons
in 1 file.
Im finding I am adding the same icons to different image lists on
different forms, and I think this would be way easier to maintain
through one file.
I just cant figure out how to add a brand new file name / resource.
Can someone please explain / help start me off in the right
direction ? vb2005 express.
Just had to find it out, too:
Menu Project -Add new item -Select "text file" and change the file
name to myicons.resx -Ok. The resource editor will open.
