Yeah, Gidday,

I have recently installed windows on my machine (386dx-40, 4MB ram, 80MB hdd,
sVGA) and it automatically put my applications into their correct window (i.e
wordperfect etc.)

The problem came when I tried to setup the game window.

I can get the game set up (in this case PGA Golf) but I can't figure out how to
create a custom icon.

I've looked in the manual (pages 512-513) but I can't get it to work.

I'm drawing the new icon using paintbrush and using Object packager to try to
bring the new icon and the program together.

I'm obviously doing something wrong but I don't know what.

Can anybody help a new user?

Thanks in advance to anybody who replies.

Mark.

p.s. email replies would be best as I don't regularly read the news.
