No matter what it is, a bitmap or an icon, DBPro will not open it. It also interferes with me trying to save the project.
Say I have the 32x32 256-color icon favicon.ico.
I browse for favicon.ico, find it, and then open it.
An error box comes up saying "Cannot open favicon.ico."
I have tried this with millions of icons.
However, it turns up in the "Icons" list in the project browser.
When I try to save the project, the same annoying error pops up: Cannot open favicon.ico.
If I get the chance to save it like I have on some odd occasions, I open it.
You guessed it:
Cannot open favicon.ico.
It gets so bad that I manually have to remove the icon from the project, just to make it work.
Even though all this happens, the icon still shows up perfectly on the screen when I generate the .exe, as if to taunt me.
But...
My program handles files. It makes a file and it writes output based on the user's input into it. It works perfectly when just a DBPro project file. But when it's an EXE, and has that gloating icon on the front of it...
It makes a file, but it doesn't write anything into it!
I have reason to believe that this has to do with the icon.
Do you know of anyone who has had a similar problem?
It's a trap!
