Missing Icon Images on Toolbars (v2005)

This topic probably has been exhausted over the years but I have a tidbit to add to the mix for AutoCAD 2005. I updated a menu (.mnu) file and recompiled it. I opened my AutoCAD session and my icons were missing from my toolbars. Look familiar? ( ) I've done this a few hundred times and couldn't figure it out. I realized that the AutoCAD profile I had current didn't have any of my Support File Search Paths. The one I needed points to the location where I keep my bitmap files. I added that directory to my Search Paths and recompiled my menu and walla. It was found !

I get the task of working with the Custom User Interface (CUI) editor for our up and coming upgrade to 2007.
