Enter the fully qualified path or browse to the file that contains the icon for the shortcut you're creating. You must specify either an .ico file or the executable (.dll or .exe) file that contains the icon resource.
When you browse to the icon file, InstallShield presents you with a list of every icon resource it holds. Select the appropriate icon in the resulting dialog, and click OK. The file's path is written to the Icon File property, and the selected resource number provides the value for the Icon Index property.
Since Windows Installer requires a separate icon when the component is to be advertised, InstallShield will extract the icon from the executable you specify. Make sure to specify an icon index if there is more than one icon resource in the executable.

Due to operating system limitations, icon extraction will not succeed on Windows 95 and 98. Use an .ico file or build the release on another operating system. |
