How to deploy an Icon to the desktop

[Arniec]

Can someone show me some instructions on how to automatically create an icon
during installation of a vb2005 windows application?

Many thanks

What are you using to install the application?

Hello Arniec,

If you are using the ClickOnce I would start from this sample http://geekswithblogs.net/murraybgordon/archive/2006/10/04/93203.aspx

If you are creating a visual studio setup and deployment project, go to the
file system view. Right click the output of your application project and
select the option to create a shortcut. Drag the shortcut to the folder (in
that same view) you want the shortcut to be installed to, such as the desktop.
