- OK, ready? :-)
-
- Click with mouse button two on the object you want to change. Select
- Open -> Settings. Click on the General tab. Select Find. Select
- Locate. Select Path. Type in the path to your icons (e.g. C:\ICONS).
- Select OK. Select Find. Click on the icon you wish to use. Select
- OK. Close up the notebook.
-
- Blatant plug: if you want to attach an icon file to any arbitrary
- file(s), use AddIcon Version 1.1 (addico11.zip), available via
- anonymous ftp from ftp-os2.nmsu.edu.
