if you are using a setup project you can add icon from setup property options and also in click once this option available. you can find it from the publish / resource menu on the click once setup.

The uniform way from a windows form to get an icon, if that is indeed what you're aiming at is:

this.Icon = ((System.Drawing.Icon)(resources.GetObject("$this.Icon")));

Now you do not have to get that icon object from a resource file of cause.

Not sure if this is what you ask, what type of application is it in your project?

the notation in vb.net is something like Me.Icon = cast(resource.getobject(...) as Icon) if i remember correctly but you can find a ton of language online translations more able ;)
