Re: Buutons, but no icons

You know, I am glad that someone here is posting the same question.
Below is a copy of my email to the group titled 'Re: Windows7-64 and 
Gtk::Stock::CLOSE', however, after editing the suggested file nothing 
changed.

The MS-Windows theme does not show icons in buttons because other
Windows applications normally do not either. You can change this by
editing share/MS-Windows/gtk-2.0/gtkrc and set gtk-button-images to 1.
