Ok after further investigation it seems someone on our team had renamed
a *.ico file to *.bmp and when I referred to that bmp it worked and when
I tried actual bmp files it did not work. So if anyone else stumbles
across this, the ListItem Icon must, in fact, be an actual *.ico file,
and it looks like it only supports 16x16x16 colours ( yuck ).

Subject: [WiX-users] ListView Icon inconsistency...
Hi all,
I'm using populating a ListView so I can display a prerequisite screen
at the very beginning of the installation.
I'm using the following code to embed the relevant bitmaps...
<Binary Id="WiXTickIcon" SourceFile="..\Common\graphics\tick.bmp" />
<Binary Id="WiXCrossIcon" SourceFile="..\Common\graphics\cross.bmp" />
The referencing WiXTickIcon/WiXCrossIcon when populating the ListView.
My question are...
1. What is the restriction on the type and size of bitmap that the
ListView Control accepts. The reason I ask is that only certain bitmaps
seem to work, while other bitmaps of the same size and bit depth, don't
show up. I've looked through the help file and MSDN but could not find
anything relevant.
2. Is it possible to display scroll bars on the ListView control as
currently the text being displayed is being cut off and there does not
seem to be a way to show it?
Thanks,
