I am planning on being able to drag an XML file and the application goes into an import mode to create a new record in the DB.

I'm using the sample code from: [URL]

View 5 RepliesVS 2008 Multiple Icons For EXE - Specify One Icon File For Projects?
Apr 28, 2010I'm sick of my EXE files only looking decent in one view in explorer (ie List or Tiles etc) because I can only figure out how to specify one icon file for my projects so it has to be a specific size and if its too big it looks rubbish at smaller sizes in explorer, and vice versa if its too small. So how can I embed more than one icon file and make it automatically select the correct one to display in explorer depending on the view? I believe you can store more than one icon in an ICO file, so do you have to just combine the various size icons into one ICO and then explorer will automatically select the correct sized on? Or is it something you have to do within the VB project?
