Application icons in VC++ .NET

Steve McLellan

Hi,

Is there a way of specifying an icon for an .EXE in the VS settings for a
VC++ .NET project? I'm sure I'm missing something simple, as I can't find
anything about this.

Thanks,

Steve

And the answer, if anyone stumbles on this in an archive, is to make sure
you've got the .rc file included in the resource section. The first icon
mentioned in there is used as the app icon.
