Hi Folks,

how do I include ICO files for the application in different sizes and color
depths to that they are found by Windows? I know how to include them in the
Project Explorer, would I need to do anything special to tell Windows how to
access them?

Thanks,

Jan

If memory serves ....

You need to create an icon file with multiple version of your icon in it
at the various resolutions you want, and Windows picks the one which is
appropriate to the use.
