Once I have built an .exe file, how do I give it an icon. I have a bunch of .ico files but cant work out what to do!

Also, how do you change the icon that appears in the corner of each form?

Thanks

In the properties of each form use the Icon propery to point to an .ico file (then recompile). The startup form's icon will be the one displayed in explorer. If you don't have any forms you should also be able to to create a resource file with the icon you want to use as the first object.

Hope it helps, Rob
