Maybe worth copying the image into a new icon file (also give it a different name) using Delphi's Image Editor. The image editor should ensure it meets the right criteria. Or at least load an icon you know that works in another app to illuminate the icon as the cause of the problem.

Testing with the same result on two separate machines: we load the icon and it appears to load (looking in the res file with the image editor shows it as MainIcon). But when we build the app, it keeps using the Delphi default icon. We've tried deleting the res file (and everything but the dpr, dfm and pas files) but it just won't hang on to the new icon. (The same icon file is successfully used as one of the Form icons, so it isn't an issue with the .ico file as far as we can tell). cheers, peter =========================================== Peter Hyde, SPIS Ltd, Christchurch, New Zealand * TCompress/TCompLHA component sets for Delphi/Kylix/C++ * TurboNote+: http://TurboPress.com/tbnote.htm -- top-rated onscreen sticky notes * Web automation for online periodicals: http://TurboPress.com Find all the above and MORE at http://spis.co.nz --------------------------------------------------------------------------- New Zealand Delphi Users group - Delphi List - [EMAIL PROTECTED] Website: http://www.delphi.org.nz To UnSub, send email to: [EMAIL PROTECTED] with body of "unsubscribe delphi" Web Archive at: http://www.mail-archive.com/delphi%40delphi.org.nz/ DISCLAIMER: This electronic message together with any attachments is confidential.
