Hi All,
I've used the Project->Options->Application dialog to set an application's icon. The icon shows up in the upper-left corner of the main window, but it does not show up in the app's task bar button, next to the program in explorer, on the alt-tab window selection pop-up, or on child forms launched from the main app. What shows up in those places is a default windows application icon.
I used icoFx to create the icon and have used icoFx's resource editer to insert the icon in other programs. When I did that, the icon showed up correctly in all expected locations.
I tried using icoFx's resource editor on my app to insert my icon, and over the course of several attempts (spread out over many weeks), had mixed, inconsistent, and variable results in terms of which icons were present and which were missing. Once, it even worked, and all the icons were there, but I haven't been able to get back to that point since rebuilding the app.
Any ideas? Is using Project->Options->Application to set the icon not enough? Do I need to set it somewhere else, as well?
I am using the Turbo edition of Borland C++.
Thanks in advance,
Jeff
