All apps from Notes SmartIcons

Allow clients to launch all applications from their Notes SmartIcon bar by adding custom icons. In this example, the application being launched is MS Word. First, create an icon for Word by copying the Word "W" into a Paint picture. Scale it to 24x24 Pels (Image-Attributes in Paint) and save it as a bmp in the your notesdataw32 directory. The icon should now be available in Notes-file-preferences-smarticon settings-available icons. Add the following code to the formula for the icon and you are in business.
