Delphi2010: unable to define Icon in the left corn of application

For a normal GUI application you can change the application icon from Project - Options. For console mode applications this section is disabled - and thus all console mode application have a default icon.

Check the following link on how to be able to change it:

http://delphi.about.com/od/delphitips2009/qt/console-mode-delphi-application-specify-icon.htm

Use
Project->Options..

Select Application from the tree view
Click on Load Icon to select your icon

thanks.

the problem is that the button "Load Icon" is deactived in my delphi IDE.

Are you creating a "VCL Forms Application" or "Console application" ?

That button should be enabled if you are using VCL Forms Application. In Console application that button will be disabled, to be able to change the icon of a console application check the link in my last post 34121667.

As per the attached pic. which one you have selected to start your application ?

Try a new project by selecting "VCL Forms Application", I think in the Dutch version it is "VCL Forms-Anwendung" then go and check:

menu->project->option->application->symbol

it is  the VCL Forms Application, the button was activated few days ago. ..

It's activated already ? What was the problem ?

it was activated since i installed delphi, then it turns deactivated. that's why i wrote post here.

i wonder if it is something to do with the registry?

you are right, jimyX. The problem is on dpr file. thanks.
