How to save cursor from resource?

[WojTec]

I have tree with resources from executable. I'm getting it as below:

ICO.Handle := CreateIconFromResourceEx(Memory, Size, &Type = Longint(RT_ICON), $30000, 0, 0, 0);

If I want to display it (eg. assign TIcon to TBitmap), this working for both icons and cursors, but if I want to save it, this working only for icons and for cursors raises exception class EInvalidGraphic with message 'Bitmap image is not valid'.

F1, please

Question propably should sound: "How to save hIcon to file?"

Can you provide a sample resource you're trying to extract a cursor from?

[WojTec]

Sure. This is standard SQL cursor attached by XE6 (raw stream and extracted by another tool).

Let's repeat: icon or cursor created from this stream by CreateIconFromResourceEx() can be loaded to display, but if I want to save it as valid icon or cursor, TIcon raises exeption I told when cursor is created.
