After following Jayesh Jain's excellent tutorial "Deploying Applications in VB.NET: Part 1/2", DevArticles November 04, 2002 I successfully made a deployment package for my VB.NET project, but when installed, the desktop icon looks like a notepad/text icon. The deployed package did not apply the icon I made to represent my project. This leads to two questions:
1. How do I control which icon will be used by the deployed desktop shortcut? 2. Is Part 2/2 of Jayesh's article available somewhere? I wasn't able to find it with google. Thanks in advance for your help! Sincerely, Herb |

Custom Icon needs to be included in deployment project
Sometimes just asking the question is enought. After posting this question, I hacked the answer. Once I added my custom icon to the deployment project within my 'solution', then I could
1. Click on 'User's Desktop' 2. Right-click on my shortcut, and select 'Properties Window' 3. Select 'icon' and 'browse' 4. Select my custom icon and click 'OK'. 5. Click Build/Rebuild Setup Having done the above, my installation shows my custom icon. Thanks for being there. I am posting this in case it may be of help to someone else... Best Regards, Herb |
