VB6 default icon and runtime

A couple of questins before providing any advice.
>How to set default VB6 Application icon to None
What are you hoping to achieve by having no icon for your VB6 application?
>Can runtime be embedded inside the Vb application
How do you mean? You can certainly distribute the runtime with your application as part of an installer package. Are you thinking of something different? Or are you thinking you might be able to create a standalone monolithic exe file?

The VB6 runtimes are already installed on all current versions of Windows (they ship with the OS). So all you really need to do is ensure that your project doesn't reference any controls or libraries that you would normally need to distribute with your app. For example, if you stick with the built-in controls you can compile to an exe, and just give that exe to people and it should run quite happily.
