Change Data Store Icon

[marispaulies]

Hello to all,

I am trying to change the default icon of the Data Store to a new icon. We want the new icon to be realted to the files and the department instead of the icon with just a number. Is this possible?

Thanks to all for your time and help.

I'm not sure if NI will encourage this or not (as it's messing with application resources), but the icon files are stored in a location where they can be overwritten:

  C:\Program Files\National Instruments\DIAdem 2014\Resource\BarSource\

The "ResourceDrv" built-in DIAdem variable gets you most of the way there (if you're scripting).

I was able to overwrite NAVDataFinder1.ico with my own .ico file and have the icon come up in DIAdem.

Note that for some reason the icon preview in Windows didn't change, but if you actually open the ICO (or look at the datafinders in DIAdem), the replaced icon was used.
