View 4 RepliesI created .ico file for my application and indicated it in Icon property of the main form in VB 2010 Express. However when I build my application the .exe file has standard form icon, although when I run .exe I see created icon in form caption area. I even created 2 versions of the icon (32x32 and 16x16) in order to see if this is related to size.Is this something related to VB Express or I am missing something? Do I need to do something additionally to assign icon to .exe file when viewed in explorer window?

I have one program with many, many forms in it and the same program is used for two companies. Basically, when a user starts the program the data location is set depending on which of the two companies is being used. Therefore, I am trying to dynamically set the icon for each form based upon which company is being used. I didn't want to add code on every form to set the icon, which is mostly what I found when I was searching for a solution.

I tried a few different way but just can't see to get it. Seems if I set the parent icon to what I want, selected and unselected, it also changes the children. What I am after is to have a parent icon that does not change regardless if it is selected or unselected. But the children will follow the icons for selected and unselected. If I don't add a third icon it all works fine, so how do I add one to parent but not change the children?

I know there is a way to remove it for the system, but I don't want to remove the little arrow from the desktop icons, I only want to remove it in my application window I am making. Adding the registry hack removes it from my app as well as the desktop, yet I want to keep those on the desktop. Is there something I can add in my app that will allow me to remove them in my application only? I am showing the icons in a lsitview

View 9 RepliesGot an annoying issue it's Visual Basic 2010 I changed icon where the assembly name.I got a good icon it has lots of sizes, or I tried diff sizes like 64x64 128x128 nothing seems to work I only see the icon when i do View > Details so it's small icons in the folder, but if i have view large icons It doesn't work. I even used the same icon on VS 2008 and it worked.
View 1 RepliesHere's the code that I use to extract the icon size that I want:
Dim i As Icon = My.Resources.Spectrum
Using i2 As New Icon(i, New Size(256, 256))
Me.PictureBox1.Image = i2.ToBitmap
End Using
This works from 16x16 up to 128x128 but for 256x256 it extracts the 128x128 icon. I tried 0x0, because I seem to remember that that is how the large size is stored in the meta data, but that didn't work either.
i'm getting this really strange error, or I must be overlooking something obvious. I'm using the following piece of code:Dim hwnd As Integer = GetWindow(GetDesktopWindow, GW_ CHILD) Dim myicon.As System.Drawing.Icon =Icon.FromHandle(hwnd)PictureBox1.Image =myicon.ToBitmap
