Thanks -- I don't think I have to worry about copyright infringement for my

problem developer's have -- you would think Apple would offer lots of stuff
like that to keep the look and feel similar.

They do, and if I remember right, the "find" box and icon that is in every Finder window is part of the dev tools which any developer can use in any program. So I don't see a problem with using that particular icon.

There may be a fine point here. I'm no attorney, and I haven't been a paying member of ADC in many years so I don't know the fine print, but as someone who's had an Apple exec brag to him that the company has more lawyers than engineers, I have to wonder:

Are developers allowed to physically copy the icon image, or is it merely allowable to render the icon my making the API call provided?
