The information in this article applies to:

Microsoft FoxPro Distribution Kit for Windows, versions 2.5x, 2.6x

Although you can use ADDICON.APP to create an icon for use in the Windows Program Manager, the icon will revert to the FoxPro icon if the program is minimized.

To change the FoxPro icon while the product is minimized, use the MODIFY WINDOW SCREEN ICON FILE <icon_filename> command. You can place this command in the Setup code of the screen.

For example, enter the following code in the Command window:

  MODIFY WINDOW SCREEN ICON FILE D:\FOXW\SAMPLE\ORGANIZE\BMPS\CONV.ICO

Minimize FoxPro. The icon will change to the CONV.ICO icon.

To return to the default icon, use this command:

  MODIFY WINDOW SCREEN
