1. ICONS

Hi again all,

Thanks for the info on VEL and Win32..

I have read most of the articles on ICONS that were sent to the list. I
know it's been wrote many times over, but I just have to ask...

Is there any way? That is worth doing..to get the .exe file to show the icon.

I have created a short cut and specified the icon that way in windows..but
this means nothing when it comes time to distribute the exe file.

Hi Jeremy,

In VEL... use the FILENAME attribute when you create the form, for example:

constant Form1 = CreateControl(FORM,0)
s = {{CAPTION, "Demo 1"},
    {FILENAME, "VEL.ico"},    -- This will display the icon
    {TOP, 100},
    {LEFT,100},
    {HEIGHT,450},
    {WIDTH,460}}
SetAttribute(Form1,s)

Have fun... Gary.

In Win32Lib, you can use setIcon to set an icon once the application is
running, but the bound executable is labled with the icon set by RDS.
