Is there a way to drag...

    I am trying to create a button based off of an icon handle that is loaded at runtime. I can get the icon to work properly as an Image, but if I try to use it as the glyph of a speed button, it has problems with transparency. Does anyone know how to do this, with or without the VCL. Thanks...
