    Question Icons

    I have nearly finished my C++ program but it looks 'tacky' because there is no icons for the desktop and file names. Any one know of a good site to learn this?

    No...I think he means creating shortcut links and putting them on the desktop..............


    There is a way, but it involves the evils of COM
