Thanks Razz. Now I need to know how to change the icon. I have created an icon and used it for my compiled app. It shows the icon when looking at the file but when I created a desktop shortcut the R shows. Am I doing something wrong? Fritz, I have recently started using external forms and in my opinion they are the best thing since 'bread and butter'

Tom, Any resource file(s), if included under Additional Resources, with specific compiler project, are relevant to that particular compiled project (.exe) ONLY. Additional Resources may include External Form Files, R:BASE Forms, R:BASE Reports, R:BASE Labels, Themes, Runtime Licenses, Plugins, and any Misc. Files such as Command Files, External EEPs, R:BASE Gateway (.RGW) files. Having stated that, if your main startup External Form File calls another External Form File, make sure to either place that External Form File in the same .EXE folder or include that External Form File under the Additional Resources also (the recommended option). If any of the Additional Resources file(s) are updated using the development environment, make sure to UPDATE all Additional Resource File(s) prior to re-compiling the project. For more details, tips, and techniques, refer to RCompiler95_32.pdf or RCompiler95_64.pdf installed under the appropriate installation folder.
