How do I tweak Windows .ico file for LV6? Error 4

[Malcolm Bebb]

I'm trying to build an app using LV6 app builder. I point it towards an icon file created in MS Studio, Windows is perfectly happy with the file but App builder comes up with an End of File error (error 4).

Is there a way  to tweak the file to make it acceptable to LV6 App buiilder?

Can anyone explain why it isn't accepted? 

Ta,

Malcolm

Make sure it contains both 8*8 and 32*32 pixel versions of a 2, 16 and 256 color icons. LabVIEW 6 can not deal with icon files that do not contain these specific icon resources. Definitly do not include fancy XP and Vista type icons like 48*48 pixels or millions of color versions.
