installing an icon in the all users startup folder

[cj]

I found a good tutorial for making a windows setup program so I'm doing
that. But when I add folders to the target machine list they don't seem
to have one for the all users startup folder. I assume this will be a
custom location and I added one called Startup. Now I'm looking at the
properties menu for it but I'm not sure how to set the properties to
specify the all users startup folder--if it exists, user startup if not.

Hello,

As I suggest in another thread, you may create a setup project in VS.NET
2003. In a setup project, we can specify contents which will be installed
on target computer, for example, we can specify what file will be installed
in the "application folder", User's Desktop or "Programs Menu". The more
important, we also can specify the contents that will be installed into
"startup folder". (This folder won't be added by default, you need to right
click the "file system on Target machine", select "Add special
folder\User's Startup Folder")

Hope this help,

Luke

How do we change the icon that is displayed on the desktop and in the
start menu.
Thanks.

In a Setup project, you can add a shortcut in desktop and satrt menu
folder, and assign a icon file for the shortcut.
