DIALOG SET ICON statement

Purpose

Change both the dialog icon in the caption, and the icon shown in the ALT+TAB task list.

Syntax

DIALOG SET ICON hDlg, newicon$

Remarks

DIALOG SET ICON changes both the small icon (as used in the dialog caption bar), and the large icon (visible in the icon task list presented during ALT+TAB task switching).

hDlg 

Handle of the dialog that is to have its icon changed.

newicon$

A string expression which specifies the name of the icon in the resource file. If the icon resource uses an integral identifier, newicon$ should begin with a Number symbol (#), followed by the integral identifier in ASCII format. For example, "#998". Otherwise, the text identifier name should be used.

Restrictions 

DIALOG SET ICON cannot use bitmap files. 32x32 pixel icons produce the most visually pleasing results.
