Change Form "Icon" in the left corner

[pdtit]

Every form in Access shows a small icon in the left corner (blue frame).

Is there a possibility to change this with other icons ??

I'd like to change this icon to make my form more clear from the Toolbar below (eg. Outlook has a specific Icon, Internet explorer has one,...)

As I have several forms which are open at the same time, I'd like to show a difference (eg. a face for my customer's form, a piece of paper for my invoices form,...)

Regards,

Peter

The Tools|Startup dialog contains an Application Icon setting that changes the icon in the upper left corner, and on the taskbar.

If by "the toolbar below" you mean the Quick Launch bar (or another toolbar you've created), those are Windows Explorer shortcuts, and they display the icon for the .exe file they run. Since you have to run msaccess.exe in order to open your database, you can't change those. Rick Sprague

Point to note here, RickSpr, that even after setting a diff. icon in the Tools/Startup dialog, it fails to appear in a different machine where the program was installed after being packaged 'n deployed (the icon file was added during packaging). However the same program runs perfectly with the changed icon in the machine where it was originally developed or so to say where the icon was originally changed. So that whenever the form gets minimized one can distinguish it by the icon. Mind that it works in VB6 but not even in Access10.

Thx for the replies, I'll have to leave it as it is than.
