Hi everyone,
Before going much further i'll mention I have tried solutions in following:

http://stackoverflow.com/questions/198848/set-application-icon-from-resources-in-vs-05
I am trying to set an icon for my application.
AFAIK, I need potentially 3 images?
1 image is the actual image in explorer when clicking on the .exe (thumbnail for the exe)
1 image (tiny) in the top left corner (16 x 16? Not entirely sure)
1 image in the start menu dock, to the left of the app (maybe 32x32? again not sure)
So thats fine.
Now I have selected an Icon. How do I use it in one of above situations?
I have tried adding it in resources, nothing seems to happen. Following that first SO solution,
"First go to Resource View (from menu: View -- Other Window -- Resource View). Then in Resource View navigate through resources, if any. If there is already a resource of Icon type, added by Visual Studio, then open and edit it. Otherwise right-click and select Add Resource, and then add a new icon."
The resource view is empty, and I cannot right click in this view.
If I right click on the solution properties resources I can add the icon image, but it doesn't show in either of the locations listed above. (or anywhere that I can see)
What am I doing wrong?
