Your code cannot change the icon associtaed with you executable (i.e. the one shown by Explorer), you should change the icon using the resource editor.

Since Luc didn't know "how to" in more recent versions of MS, you can find the different size icons by right-clicking while the icon is displayed. Don't right-click on the icon itself, right-click on the "empty" space around the image. At the bottom of the pop-up menu is a set of 3 meu item - New Image Type, Current Icon Image Types, and Delete Image Type.

Hi Judy,
I'm using Visual Studio 2005 Express Edition, it seems to open icons only by launching MS Paint.
So I do not see where I should right-click "while the icon is displayed" at all.
Can you enlighten me?
I have a similar question for hex viewing a file.
And for editing HTML files (with source view and preview).
All these are features that are present in VS6, but seem missing in the 2005 Express Edition,
or have I overlooked something?

I've got the Professional Edition. My guess is these are "features" that are missing from the Express Edition. Just enough in there to make EE mostly useful but not enough so that developers can skip sending M$ money for the real version

As I'm a fellow fossil using VS6, I may be able to help.
Bring up the icon in the resource editor. You'll see a small picture of it, and a zoomed in one just to the right for editing.
As has been said, an ICO file has several different sizes in it. If you look above the smaller pic, you'll see a dropdown labelled "Device", and probably "32x32x256" in it. Just click the drop down to see the other icons in the icon file.
I hope that helps!

Hi,
I have developed one activeX control for displaying tiff images in VC6.

From ancient memory, I thought activeX was internet explorer specific. In which case you're stuffed.
This may not be the best forum to help though, but I'm sure there's a web one where you can ask about script, ajax, jif and all that stuff.

Hi,
I'm an active VB.NET, PHP and Java developer. I had some experiences with C, but not much. The project I'm working on is TCP IP support for a hand terminal. The terminal has a Intel PX processor and a WIN CE OS.
The general idea is to implement TCP IP capability over GPRS, so the only thing needed is when the terminal connects to the internet using GPRS I start listening to a specific port. When the data comes I start receiving the data and saving it on the terminal. When the data is completely received i close the socket and port.
I have developed a complete working solution in VB, but my boss says it cannot be that "high up" meaning the .NET framework... So I must develop it on low-level using C.
I have downloaded uIP(TCP IP capability, designed to be used on embedded devices that have low memory) and a ported version for MS Windows by Higeron. But I get a massive amounts of errors, 600+. I'm using Visual Studio 2005 to create the program.
(I first want to create it on windows xp to see if it works) then final version on WIN CE (it mustn't use any windows libraries it must be pure C) The app is quite simple and uIP that does 95% of the work, but the problem is I can't get uIP to work. (I have created a new project with VS2005 and put all the header files and all the source files in the same root folder. Try to compile it and got 600+ errors.
Any ideas, suggestions, solutions, anything.
Please help.
Thank you!

What will become of this project once you are done with it? Is this "hand terminal" going to retail?

Actually, my line of questioning was hinting at the possibility of problem(s) that would occur should such a project/product go to market. Folks would unknowingly be using something that was done by an alleged amateur/newbie/beginner. I just have a real problem with situations like that.

I understand the danger, but with our constant help, those folks will surely release state of the art products to the market!
