Hi again duds, It´s possible to asign an icon (32x32-16colors) to an .exe file, let´s say: control.exe?

There is an icon program (Icon Collector) that can 'inject' an icon into an EXE file. It's Win9x, but I used something similar in Win31 (maybe an earlier version?)

I'm just looking for clues at the scene of the crime

I know there's a program called Resource Editor (also called RegEdit.exe) that changes icon and the program's resources... but it doesn't work under Win3.1...:(

Regedit is the Windows registry editor - ??

Resource Editor and Resource Hacker are Win9x programs - not that I think the Original Poster cares, at this point - but what the heck are you talking about El?
