Change runtime Icon

[SteveS]

Hello,

I designed an icon that I want included with my runtime application. This icon would point to my execute file. I would like the end user to select this icon to open the runtime application. Is there a way to accomplish this task? I would greatly appreciate any help with this task.

Thank You,

Steve

You have to use an install application like inno Setup -- you can specify shortcuts wherever you want and using whatever icons.

Thank you Genx,

I have been using the MindVision Installer program, but I could not figure out the icon problem. I thought the icon issue could be corrected during the binding process. I really appreciate your help and will go to the link that you suggested.

Sincerely,

Steve

FYI: This is the code i use to install shortcuts to both the start menu and the users desktop.

The Clickteam Installer is what I use:

It's also freeware and let's you easily enter a custom icon during the creation process.

Hope that helps,

William,

Thank you for the link. I downloaded the installer from this site and was quite impressed. It was user friendly and easy to use.
