Why don't the new icon show up?

[Shahzad]

I have simple SDI application. When I changed the MFC icon in developer studio icon editor, this new icon should appear when I run the program, but the same old MFC (default) icon appear when I run the program. I have saved the session after editing, what could be the problem?

Have you compiled your app after the icon change ?

Have you changed BOTH icons? By default, there are two icons for the application. A big one and a small one. You can select them in the drop down list above the icon editor. Make sure you have changed them both.

Hope this helps,
Oliver.

thankx, it was a very nice suggestion and it is working, but can you answer another question, which is:
In 'res' folder, there is only one icon file, should not there be two icon files, for two different resolutions?

As far as I know, an icon file can contain as many icons as it wants, i.e. one for each resolution, no. of colours, etc. Thus, there is only one icon file for all the resolutions.

Hope this helps?

How do I use 50x%0 icon. When I SetIcon(), it only allow 32x32 or 16x16.

Thanks
