Description of the necessary steps for embedding an icon file, other
image formats will work similar:
Add the icon file to your project and set its 'Build Action' property to
'Embedded Resource'. You can use the code below to load the icon at
runtime:
\\\
foo.Icon = _
New Icon( _
[Assembly].GetExecutingAssembly().GetManifestResourceStream( _
"WindowsApplication1.Ball.ico" _
) _
)
///
'WindowsApplication1' is the root namespace of the application, "Ball.ico"
is the icon's filename.
