 how to use a different icon from the standard one provided with .exe files

Hi

I am writing a number of .exe files in vb6 with a broadly similar
background. How might I change the basic icon that Microsoft provides
to different ones of my choice? I have a good selection of suitable
icons that I can choose from but I do not know how to replace the
standard icon with one of these.

Grateful for any advice.

To change the application .EXE's icon in VB, set the main form's Icon
property to the desired icon file.  Then, in the project properties,
make sure the Icon combo box is pointing to the correct form.  When
you compile, the .EXE will have the icon you desire.
