>>In my application Project Information the Attach Icon is checked and the correct icon appears. Most customers see this icon on their desktop shortcuts. But one customer just sent me an email saying that the application desktop shortcut icon sometimes changes to the Fox head. They actually attached an image that looks just like VFP Fox.
>>
>>Is this something that I need to correct in my application (when building it)? Or is this the issue with their desktop? I am wondering, why Fox head. Where is it specified in the project?

It is not missing. But sometimes the desktop shortcut changes the icon from my application one (the one I created many years ago) to an icon that looks like Fox head.

Yes, the EXE contains the icon.

>My ideas to check:
>How is the desktop icon set? (just by the customer or is this something done via installation)

It is set by the customer. Most likely they navigate to the .EXE and select to Send to the Desktop.

I really don't remember what colors I used when creating the icon. But, as I said, most of the time the icon on the desktop shows correctly. But a few times it changed to the Fox head.
