How to set the application icon correctly?!?!

[mikef]

I am having trouble setting the application icon. I have the icon showing up in the top left hand corner of every form....except in the START: PROGRAMS listing, and the desktop....they are showing the generic VB form icon. How can I associate my icon to these 2 places??

When you compile it, click Options, there you can set the icon option.

Go to Project-->Properties and Hit the Make Tab. There should be a combobox with to specify the program icon. Check if everything is correct in there (you may want to change it to one of the forms that have your icon in them)
HTH

When I go to the Make tab...there is a combo box with a list of all my forms...but all of them have that standard VB icon in them. I am using: Me.Icon = LoadPicture(App.path & "\myicon.ico") in the Form_Load of my forms......is this wrong?? How do I associate an icon with a form without this code???

In the Form's Properties there is an Icon Property. Change it to whatever icon you want.
Should work.

I FOUND IT!!! WOW! I LOVE FEELING LIKE A NEWBIE <--- (Happens 4 or 5 times per week & I have been programming for years!!)

Thanks for the push!
