I have written a windows application using Visual Studio and have installed
it on my machine ... it appears in the START > All Programs list and works
fine. I put a shortcut to the program on the desktop and now I want to set
the icon for it but when I right click it (on the desktop) and go to
properties Change Icon is not presented ... instead I get three tabs ...
General, Security and Summary. Isn't it possible to set the icon for a
shortcut such as this? Is it possible to set the icon for ANY file? Not
sure how to do this.

Thanks.
 
May be that is not a shortcut . Right click on the program > Sent to >
Desktop(Create shortcut) . OR Drag it to the desktop with the "Alt" key
pressed.
