I am new to the .Net but not new to VB, but I am having problems with the
form icon. I made an icon file using VS.Net 2003 and then added it to my
form. The icon shows in the properties, but not on the form. If I use an
old icon it works fine. Is there something that Ishould know about this?
TIA 6 2845
Project Properties -> Build
Set the Application Icon to your custom icon.

So, the icon doesn't show up in the title bar or in the Alt+Tab dialog?
What icon types did you add to your icon file (size, color depth)?

I wasn't getting an icon in either. I reduced the depth and now I have it
on my form. But, I don't have it in the Alt+Tab.
I have 3 copies of the icon
32x32 at 16
32x32 at 256
16x16 at 16
Thanks.

That should be OK. Maybe it's the order in which the icons have been
added to the file that causes the problem, but I am not sure about that.

Well, I deleted the icons and redid them as 32x32 at 16 and 16x16 at 16. Now
it works fine.
Thanks.
