application icon on deployment not showing

[woodsprite]

hello,

I am trying to deploy an application so that when it shows up on the users desktop it has a certain icon. So far the only thing showing up on deployment on the users desktop is a rectangle with lines through it.

Does anyone know how to fix this?

I'd really appreciate some ideas.

I believe you can set this in the Project Properties from the toolbar.

If you are using VS,

create a new icon
File-->New-->File-->Icon

At a minimum, do the drawing for both the 16x16 16 color image and the 32x32 16 color image. Use
Image-->Current Icon Image Types-->[image]
to switch image view of the icon

Save the icon file

Set the icon as a property of the Windows form. I think the icon is copied

Rebuild the resources or application


Note : A particular icon image view is selected for different file views in Windows eg list, tiles, details. So do the image for each view.
