button icons

[Byron Turner]

This seems strait forward but for some reason I can't get images into 
button icons.  I've copied the script right from the dictionary and all 
it does is remove existing icons. I've tried different images and 
different buttons and nothing.  Any ideas?

example scripts:

set the icon of button "upSkill"  to image "newt.jpg"
set the icon of button "downskill"  to image id 1866
