Hi, I am having trouble getting a custom icon to show for my application on the accpac desktop. My group file looks like this:
[ HEADER ]
application = "CG"
version = "55A"
language = "ENG"

[ MENU ]
id = "CG0000"
icon = "CUSTIC"
title = "App Name"
caption = "App Name"
parent = "DESKTOP"

I've tried both dumping the CUSTIC.ico file in the C:\Pluswdev\ICONS directory and creating a custom icons folder in the uis/resource folder. For the uis/resource folder I edited the makefile with this:

RC = rc -r -d _APP_VERSION_RES_=\"$(BUILDVER)\" \
-d _APP_VERSION_RES2_=$(BUILDVER) -i$(BMPPATH) \
-i$(ICONPATH) \
-i$(UIS_RESPATH)\Icons

---------------------

No matter what I try, after I complile and open Accpac I see the default icon and not my custom icon.

Please help.
Thanks.
 
Yes, the module is active. All my apps are listed, its just the icon isn't the custom one I defined in the group file.
