>From memory (and this is playing with BCB a while ago) you include the
resource file in the project when you build the package.  The icon is loaded
by Delphi (or BCB) when it opens the package, as opposed to other resources
that are linked at runtime when you're not using run-time packages.

I think.  Your milage may vary :>
