Hi Klaus,

What you already did - copying the whole of stack "icons" as a substack 
to your standalone -seems to be the exact  and only answer, unless we 
change the relevant scripts of the Resource Mover.  I had a look at that 
"loop", and I have the impression that it copies icons associated with 
buttons anywhere in a stack that are *not* mentioned in scripts. 
Additionally the basic icons for answer and ask dialogs seem to be copied.

I had come across this problem some time ago (two years or so?) and had 
reported this on this list.

What are the opinions for an optional inclusion of the whole Icon stack? 
It would add another 500 KB to a standalone.
