HICON hicon;
hicon = LoadIcon(AfxGetInstanceHandle(), MAKEINTRESOURCE(IDR_MYICON));
SetIcon(hicon, true );

dont forget to add the new icon IDR_MYICON via resource.
if it is a dialog based MFC application do it in your OnInitDialog()
if SDI application do it in your CMainFrame::OnCreate() function

Along with above solutions, if you generate the project with the wizard then there is one indirect method.Go to your project folder and res folder and replace the default icon(generated with wizard normally it will be <projectname>.icon ) with your icon.rebuild the project again.But this method wont help you to understand the framework.
