Smile Putting an Icon on a Form

I've been trying to change the icon on a form from the default to one that I've
created myself. It is 29x23 pixels in size and saved as a .ico file. It was drawn
in Paint.

The problem that I'm having is that when I go to the Icon property in my Form's
properties box and select the icon, I get an error message come up saying 'Invalid
Property Value'.

Any ideas?

Paint doesn't save as .ico files. There are icon editors you might try using to make your icon file.

Talking Get Icon creator software

There is software specifically for creating and saving custom icons. You build your icon then save it. You can then import it.

Check the web there are lots of icon creator software packages out there.

Some will even let you download for 30 days to try out.

Good luck.
