    [RESOLVED] Its the little things that bug me !

    I've compiled a project that has a magnifying glass as its icon.

    The project contains 2 icons (in a resource file), a house and a magnifying glass.

    When I go into Project Properties the house icon is displayed ... which is good.

    When I compile the project the icon for the .EXE becomes the hourglass icon ... which is bad.

    I tried deleting the .EXE and recompiling, thinking it may inherit something ... but no.

    I know this is petty .. but its bugging me ....

    err... I don't get it, do you mean you set the form's icon properties to a certain icon and it didn't view it after compiling?

    In the resource editor, change the house icon id to "APPICON".
    The issue could be from having the magnifying glass icon's id of 1
    which is reserved for the APPICON.
