I am wondering if there is a way to apply a graphic for my database for the database and forms. I know Options allows you to browse and select your icon for the database. But I don't want the users to have to do so when they copy the database to their harddrive and link it to the tables on the server.


If it has anything to do with a "path", that is not an option either, since I do not know every users "path" to server. My network is on drive P, but others might have it setup differently. If that makes sense.
Thanks!
 
I place the icon(s) in the same folder as the front end on each users hard drive. Then it is easy to find the path.

I use a launcher database that auto updates the front end to the local hard drive and also created a shortcut on the user's desktop with my icon.

Anothrr option is to create an installer that creates the shortcut with the icon.
