On PC I can recommend: Resource Hacker for changing over icons & exe properties etc. http://www.users.on.net/johnson/resourcehacker/ <quote>Resource Hacker is a freeware utility to view, modify, rename, add, delete and extract resources in 32bit Windows executables and resource files (*.res). It incorporates an internal resource script compiler and decompiler and works on Win95, Win98, WinME, WinNT, Win2000 and WinXP operating systems.</quote> I have just recently starting using this gem and have not had a single problem so far. I have found though that when you start editing the projector icon on a fast start projector you need to ensure the ini file has the line: [Movies] Movie01="the name of your movie" For shortcuts try Buddy API www.mods.com.au which has 2 free functions. If you use the command baMakeShortcut( FileName , Path , Title ) you still have 1 spare. I must admit I find many uses for BAPI and with the exchange rate between UK & Aus. is probably one of the cheaper value for money options too.
