OK, one last stupid question and I'll have this thing beat.  My button 
icons are all working fine but what aren't are icons for the answer 
dialogs: generally I've called for "answer question "My prompt?" with 
"Yes" or "No" but it doesn't matter if the iconType parameter passed to 
answer is question, information, or nothing.  I get a good icon when I 
run the app in the RR environment but nothing as a standalone.  Any 
guesses?
