I have a vb.net 2008 application which has its corresponding icon.
The icon shows correctly except in the taskbar when the "small icon" setting is on.
My vb.net project includes a .ico file which when I see in the IDE includes 16x16, 32x32, 48x48, 64x64 and 256x256 bitmaps, in 4, 24 and 32 bits, also 3 .png images in 256x256 32 bits each.
I made the icon myself simply using a 64x64 bitmap and then converting it to .ico, and assigning it to the application in the project properties. I thought windows would use and escalate the corresponding image, it shows even in the file explorer properly in the small icon form, but not in the taskbar.

Using VB2010. I want to create an animated icon to go in the SysTray, and I have created all the individual frames as .ico files. Now, I don't like hard coding file names in the code, so I created an ImageList with the .ico files, which I then want to walk through using a Timer. Now, apparently NotifyIcon doesn't accept ImageLists? I get errors when I try to use it. I searched the web, and saw a tip to instead pass the handle of the ImageList to NotifyIcon. So I did this in the timer:
Static Index As Integer = -1
Dim IconHandle As IntPtr
If Index = AnimationIcons.Images.Count - 1 Then

I've always had to use a program that does this stuff for me, but I'd like to just make my own program that does this. I've already got the individual bitmap images of the 3 sizes (16x16, 32x32 and 48x48) for the icon file and I usually find use some shareware program to create the icon file from the multiple bitmap images for me but I'm wondering if it's possible in .Net to create an icon file (*.ico) that contains multiple physical icons in it.

how to create the contextmenu near the system tray icon that i've created? the current contextmenu will always "run" to certain position. How to do that? especially the second parameter of the following:
Me.contextMenu1 = New System.Windows.Forms.ContextMenu
Me.menuItem1 = New System.Windows.Forms.MenuItem
Me.menuItem2 = New System.Windows.Forms.MenuItem
Initialize contextMenu1
[Code]...
Me.contextMenu1.Show(Button1, New Point(0, 0)) .NET not allow the control to be the notifyicon, so i added a button.hOW to make sure that the contextmenu always firm on one position , ie, at the system tray icon that i've created. Once i click on the icon, it will show this contextmenu.

I'm at the code cleanup/little fixes stage of finishing my program and I'm trying to set the application icon. In the project properties I've chosen my icon file. It displays correctly in the taskbar, detail view, etc. However, it does not display when viewed on the desktop ("tiles" view) or when Alt+Tabbing.
How can I fix this so the icon displays properly everywhere?

I am trying to create an icon in the system tray as status for num-lock, caps-lock, and scroll-lock, because my keyboard that came with my computer does not have status lights on the keyboard, and only on the system tray.
The program however that came with it, does not like to work when I have some games open and stuff, it works usually in IE, and most other programs, but some programs just seem to interfere with it.
I have made a new program on a 1 mili-second timer for the 3 and it seems to work just fine in the application, I was wondering now if I could move that over to the system tray and make it look like the one that came with computer, it has 3 different icons, and the icon changes for on/off and has a tooltip status change on mouse-over showing status of on/off.

I 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?
