I have tested this code on A2K and AXP but not on A97, however it should also work there.
The code was org. written by Klaus, I have modifyed the function to enable 1 icon file for all forms "the easy way".
Also I have added the option to auto add the icon to the app itself in the function "SetAppIcon" this can be called from an autoexec macro or any function or sub.
Here is the link to where I org. got the code:
