Thank you very much. With this explanation, together with the StrongHelp
files, the Dr. Wimp source code, Reporter and a lot of trial and error,
I've now created a routine that  can change fonts in an existing icon
indeed, without freezing the machine. I'm getting closer all the time!

Here's a new one: how can I change a font AS WELL AS its colour in an icon?
I already managed to write a routine that can change foreground and
background colours, but when I call both routines, it will - depending on
the order of the calls - either colour the icon properly but with the
system font set, or it will change the font properly, but always with black
foreground and a white background colour, How can I have both?

Very curious about your reply,
Paul Sprangers
