folder icon

adi
Hi,
I want to know how can I change my folder icon on windows
2000?

p.s.

I've read that the "desktop.ini" file does this thing,
but on my win 2000 it does'nt work!

thanks,
adi.

Ask in the Windows 2000 ng. This is a VB.NET language ng and your
question doesn't seem to be related to VB.NET.
