Associate Icon with Executable Produced by VS 2003

The executable produced by my VB .NET/VS 2003 application has the
default blue icon associated with it. I have a custom .ico image I use
for shortcuts in my build and it works fine.

What I cannot figure out how to do is to also associate my icon image
with the primary output .exe file.

Thoughts?

Thanks!
