Appliacation Icon

[Makaveli]

I know most of you guys are techi, but I've almost finished my DB and now its time to make it look good.

from the start up I've selected an Icon, which is now displayed in the top left hand corner and in the task bar whilst its open.

problem 1.
If i am to copy the database onto someone elses computer the icon wont be in the same place is there anyway to save it inside of the database?

Problem 2.
I've downloaded a free .ico file and was hoping to change the actual access files picture to this icon but without changing every other access file any ideas?

Helps much apprechiated as always

Icon in startup

I normally make a folder on the root of c and place the icon and database front in it. If you click on Tools, Startup there is a place to browse for the icon for the application.

Good idea... thanks,

Any idea how I can change the actual application icon, ie the file icon itself.

I don't think you can change the mdb icon without changing them all for Access. If I remember correctly, it is possible through the developers package using distribution. It might be for mde extensions only though. You'd have to do more research on the topic.
