Icon Missing

[Guest]

I have a new computer and after moving all my data MS Access programs dont
show up with the KEY ICON anymore. They show up with the flying window icon,
but it will open fine. Is the a control somewhere to tell the computer to
show these icons?

Is this in a shortcut to the program or when you look at the mdb file itself
in Explorer? As long as you have Access installed, the mdb file should show
an Access icon. If you copied the shortcuts from the previous computer and
your version of Access has changed, then the path to Access has probably
changed also. If so, right click the shortcut and choose Properties. On the
Shortcut tab click the Change Icon... button and browse to the location of
Msaccess.exe. Choose the appropriate icon and click Ok until you close all
of the dialog boxes.
