You must initialize Component Object Model (COM) with CoInitialize or
OleInitialize prior to calling SHGetFileInfo


This statement appears in the Help at location Window Shell and Control.


Does it apply for DotNet VB?


I'm using SHGetFileInfo without initialize and it appears to be working but
just noticed that statement.



Thanks

Thanks, I hate to have these hanging item that I'm not sure of!

No, it's done by the runtime before your code runs.
