That last, though, can be kept in sync automatically.
My standard "AboutBox" routine gets the name & version
info from the resources & stuffs it into the custom
alert at ^1 & ^2.
A related question: in Constructer there is a field
that designates the application icon as icon resource with
ID=1000 ... all the -code- I've looked at seems to -assume-
that the app icon is ID=1000. If I change the value in
constructor, does it affect anything? Is it written to a
resouce? Of what type? Is there any way (Get1Resource?) to
get this value? If I change the value from 1000 to 1111, the
little button changes from "Edit" to "Create" (because I do
not -have- an icon resource w/ ID of 1111 right now), so I
assume that this value gets stored -somewhere- ... but does
it ever get -used- if all the launcher code assumes ID=1000?
