I have made my icon and it is included in my project in the icon section, but I can find nowhere an option to use it as my application's icon. Any information on this would be appreciated.

load the icon in the icon panel to the right then the above code will place it in the title bar when you make the exe. also the exe and any shortcuts will have the icon.

It's only placing the icon in the title bar, it's not setting the executable's icon.

Google 'Resource Hacker' - it lets you change loads of things about a compiled EXE, including various icons - just replace everything that's the DB icon.

2005. 2005. 2005. No way. 2005. 2005. You've got to be kidding me. 2005 already!?
