I have string tables defined using the 'stringresource' section in several .pas
files, and I include several .res files in some components that include bitmap
resources.

Going File->New Application; Build All yield'd project1.exe with an icon in
explorer, selecting my .ico file and rebuilding, project1.exe now displays my
icon.

I could select a different .ico file, it would display in the project options
dialog box, it would display on my forms, but not in explorer.
It must be _something_ in my project that's causing this, but god only knows
what it is. I first encountered this under Delphi 4 (not sure when it started
thou as it was reported by a user) and still occurs under Delphi 5.
