the file is a MS Access Database. Would like to check if the file
doesn't exists in the application directory to extract it from the exe
and place it there.

Instead of creating an icon object from the resource stream, write the
stream's data to a 'FileStream' object. Maybe it's even better to hold the
default database in a template directory and simply copy this template
database to the desired location instead of blowing up the resource by
embedding larger files.
