Getting rid of application's default ugly icon

[MarkS]

Is there any way to get rid of that ugly blown-up blue window icon that
appears on all of my VB.net executables? I would rather just have the
system's default application icon, like in C# and C++.

Marks,

Depends on where, as you use forms it is simple setting the icon property to
an icon of your own.

In project's properties page -> Application, look at "Icon" and choose
"browse" to use which icon you wish to use.

Plus, if you want to change icon displayed on title bar or
notification icon at runtime, you can use Me.Icon property like in
that article:
(Me.Icon = New Icon("c:\<icon_name>.ico")

Hope this helps,

if you want you can set the cursor the same way
with a 256colorsIcon
me.cursor=....
