Mike,
Having gone through the same problem recently and posted a
similar question to the list, I'll tell you what I've been able to
gather:
1) You need the latest version of Constructor (assuming your *using*
Constructor) and I don't think that version has made it out into
the "public" area of the Provider Pavilion. At last check (and I
could be wrong; I'd be *glad* to be wrong; I'd like to get a copy)
it's still in the seeding area and I haven't had the time to fill
out the paperwork to get into that area. The version that is
shipping with the compiler that you buy isn't the latest (I bought
mine about a month ago).
2) When you get that version, create an App Icon Family, which is a
"set" of icons under one resource, and give your 32X32 size (e.g.-
not the 22X22 size stated in the Companion PDF) icon an ID of 1000
and your 15X9 icon an ID of 1001.
This should do the trick according to the incredibly supportive folks
at Palm (THANKS Vivek and Dave!). However, please note that I can't
verify it yet because I can't get the latest version of Constructor.
Hopefully that'll change shortly...
Take care,

ps-I am assuming that when they put the latest and greatest Constructor
out for the "public" that those of us who bought CW6 for the Palm (and
I suppose more importantly who have applied and gotten into the PP) will
be able to get it from within the PP. Is that true?
