I've been going over the source code for the tutorial application, making sure I understand everything. Well, when I got to line 111, I stopped and wondered. (Well, actually, I had a question about constants but I answered my own question before I posted.)

Here's the line in question:

[code=thinbasic]
global Icon_Welcome_d as long = ImageList_Add masked, iList, app_sourcepath & "Icons\Welcome16_d.bmp", cPink
[/code]

I understand what the line does. The Help file was quite helpful. What I don't understand is its purpose in the application. This variable is not referenced anywhere else. And, this is the only image in the list that has a transparent value assigned to it. Was it something that was never implemented?
