EXE file Icon and Version Information

Hi there,

When I trying to Make a project (EXE file) I can't define a custom icon, why, is it possible to add custom icon to my EXE file?

A second issue is that when I fill out the Version information on Main Project Tab and then compile to EXE file, it doesn't show that information what I inputed in the Version fields, why?

See the attached image for better understanding my problem...



And please do not offer me to use any RES Editor software to do this kind of changes! :whistling:

Best regards,
Viktor
I think it will be a good replacement for VB6 after a little improvements and minor bug fixes... :rolleyes:

The post mentioned above is here.
Somehow the link ends up in an 404 error.

An overview article on version information in general and related APIs is here

Form icom bug

When trying to set a custom icon for the form icon property it assigns it to the form picture property therefore falls to display a form icon.




I must say this is a great application, with a few improvement and bug fixes this can go places. Development maybe spreeded up if it went open source

Problem solve Icon in Form Bug

When trying to set a custom icon for the form icon property it assigns it to the form picture property therefore falls to display a form icon.
Maybe a little late but here the solution. ;)

Dim icon As Image = Toolkit.getDefaultToolkit().getImage("Res/your-imagename.jpg")
Me.Parent.setIconImage(icon)
