Task Icon does not appear on exe file.

Hi,
I've assigned an icon (draw for 16x16 and 32x32) to an application. It shows
correctly on the program bar and task bar, but in explorer, no matter what
view mode I select (details, list, icons, tiles etc) the standard application
icon is used. In another program I wrote, I did not have this problem. Any
good ideas?

Thanks,
Best regards, Jesper, Denmark.

In the project properties you can choose the icon for the assembly. Check it
out.

Jesper

Did you set it up as both the icon for your main form and for the
Project?

I've created an icon for my application. It is in the Solutions Items folder. The project (app.ico) is the same file and the form's icon is linked to this icon. The icon shows up just fine on the desktop shortcut but when the program runs the task bar has the default MS icon, not mine. What am I doing wrong? -- Steve
