Xorlak...

Xorlak... it just occured to me that I program I've been using for ages could solve your icon problems. As you know, you can't change the icon of trans2.exe... you had created a nice icon for the original too...

I have the solution! There is a wonderful (and completely legal) free decomplier called Resource Hacker. Since you don't have VB You can't just change the icon of trans2 and recompile it, right? But with this program you can change various aspects of a program such as:

Cursor, Icon, Bitmap, GIF, AVI, and JPG resource images can be viewed. WAV and MIDI audio resources can be played. Menus, Dialogs, MessageTables, StringTables, Accelerators, Delphi Forms, and VersionInfo resources can be viewed as decompiled resource scripts. Menus and Dialogs can also be viewed as they would appear in a running application.

With this program you can very eaisly change the icon of trans2.exe and recompile it without owning VB!
