How do you get the icons from the Icon Editor in Visual Studio.Net to work correctly. Whenever I insert it into a program the EXE icon is fine but on the form it just has the "paper-picture" icon that represents an icon file in the New File box.
 
In the form designer, make sure the form is the selected control,
and click the little ellipsis (the "...") next to the Icon property, and
browse for your icon.
 
That's not what I ment. I circled the problem in the attached JPEG. The icon in the Properties bar is not the same as the one on the form. When I compile the app and run it, it is still like that but the program icon shows correctly.

Also the Properties Panel Description Panel keeps moving (Circled in green), everytime I run VS.Net it moves down about 4 pixels until it eventually falls off which is annoying to have to keep putting it back in it's place.

Maybe the icon has a format that's not being shown on the form,
but it is in the Icon property. Go into the icon editor and check
that all different formats (different combinations of sizes and
colors) are complete, and delete any unused ones.

If that does not help... your guess is as good as mine.
