Right click your project in the solution explorer, choose properties, choose
build. You can change your icon there.

Hi all, I would like to change icon in my dll for a custom new one. When I change it in properties in VS.NET nothing hapenns. Still in the upper left corner of the window I have default icon. I don't want to do it in code, because I want the icon to be automatically connected in file. Any idea what is should do ? Thanks a lot.
