    You'll have to edit the internal resource 'file' inside the executable.

    Re: Changeing Compiled App Icon

    I know about editing it with an external program, but I am looking for code that can do it from an different program. ok I made a small scripting Lanuage that compiles to an exe, and I like to give the user the option to compile the app and add there own Icon. just as like in VB.

    Hope that has made my post a little more clear.
