Try setting the icon property on your child forms to default. I have done what you are trying to do.

>Well, I guess I found a place where OOP don't work. I set the icon in my form class, thinking it would make all my forms nice. No dice. The icon's screwed up on the forms. But if I go to each form and select the same icon, they're fine. Sigh. Guess I got a lot of forms to open.
