When compiling and linking with the MSC++, my project is always compiling using the default bar code style icon. I have a different icon I wish to use as the default icon for the program and would like it to be displayed with the .exe program file for my project.

How to do change the icon not only for the project you are working on, but also assign it to the linked executable program?

Thanks,

Scott.

 
Go to the resource tab and replace that icon with your icon. Rename yours idrmainframe if you want it to be the default. Also, make sure you change both the 32x32 and 16x16.
 
Got it! It took me a little bit to work through the replacing of the file but I found that I replace the icon file and reload it when the system prompts you to do so.

Thanks for your help.

Scott.
