Probably he means how to add the icon to the executable. To do this, add an icon to one of your forms by setting the ICON property in the property pages window at design time. Then right-click on "Project1" (or whatever your project name is) and select "Project 1 Properties." Click the Tab entitled "Make" and you will find a drop-down box entitled "Icon" and a list of the forms in your project. Select the form that has the icon that you want as the icon for your .exe file

I hope that is what you meant!
