Author ico in dbw file

Hello,

I compiled a dbw with icon program file. But it does not appear on the dbw
file. It shouldn't be like if it was aEXE that on the windows explorer
appears this icon we defined?

Images cannot be included in a web exe. You need to reference the image in
the program something like this.:

<IMG SRC="/images/aplus.jpg" HEIGHT="45" ALT="My Home Page"

Now if you are looking to have the Icon at the upper left of the Browser
window title bar you need a "FAVICON.ICO"

This site can explain that:

Sorry, I don't think you can have the icon in the title bar. It will show
in the address field.

It is not that. The file in the harddisk shows with the default icon instead
of the one inside the .DBW file. I am not talking about the visual effects
to the user accessing throught the web page.

do you have, in the Windows registry, dbw file types mapped to the dBASE
runtime file -- the so called "Web Application Mapping"? If yes, then
that is where the icon for .dbw files is determined. For a quick test,
rename one your .dbw files to, say, .dbx. Does the internal icon then
appear?

Well then, there's your answer <g>. The registry entry for DBW file
types is taking precedent over the file's internal icon.
