SUMMARY
=======

Windows-based applications always display their default icon and title when
minimized. Any change made to an application's default icon, or default
description in Program Manager will have no effect when the program is running
and is minimized on the desktop.

MORE INFORMATION
================

All Windows-based applications have one or more icons embedded in their
executable (.EXE). The first embedded icon is the application's default icon
that will appear in Program Manager if a specific icon is not assigned. Changing
the assigned icon to any other icon, including other embedded icons, will not
change the way the application appears when minimized.

Additional query words: 3.00 3.00a 3.10 3.11
