Hi,

I have a setup project that has a .chm file and a .doc file as part of
installation. They show up on the start menu of the user with the default
icon shown in the project. Not the help icon and the word icon. How do I
change these icons in the setup project?

Thanks.
James
 
You can set the Icon property for your shortcut to be any winword icon. You can either extract the icon from
winword.exe and add that icon, or you can add winword.exe to your project, exclude the file, and choose winword.exe
as the icon file, selecting the appropriate icon.
 
Are there any copyright/IP issues here. I was not willing to use this
solution for that reason.
