Hi,

How can I get my Release build .exe file to have an user defined icon
instead of the default exe box, so for example if a copy was on on my
desktop my exe would display my icon. I have included the icon within the
project but this doesn't seem make any difference...

Many thanks for any advice.
 
You should make an icon that contains at least a 16x16 and 32x32 image and
then reference this icon through the "Application Icon" option in the
application project properties. An ico can contain multiple icon formats and
they can be edited by opening the icon in Visual Studio.
 
Thank you!
