Marek,
How about to including in your <programname>.rc the following string(s):
// Using a resource file like this, you can include bitmaps, icons and sounds
// inside EXE.
//
// Resource name Resource Type Resource FileName
//
WORLD ICON WORLD.ICO
...

Going this way, I preperad .rc file, but in my opinion, it doesn't work.
If I declare icon in window definition, it appears.
But main program listed in folder has standard icon from ide.
My older project, linked with hmg 2.0 and older IDE has icon.
Maybe something with IDE ???

Had you mentioned all your resources in the IDE resources page of the Project Browser window? (instead of listing them in a .rc file)
It works fine for me.

I have all resources placed in "Resrc." tab:
but still only standard icon appears in my AKORD.EXE

icon and ICON are the same? And, is there any empty space after the last line?
I don't understand why this happens.
