Stupid MS Office XP Question...


Recommended Posts

here's what i've found here at neowin few weeks ago:

The easiest way:

First of all, get Resource Hacker from http://www.rpi.net.au/~ajohnson/resourcehacker/

Then, in Explorer, go to

C:WINDOWSInstaller{90280409-6000-11D3-8CFE-0050048383C9}

(Not visible, paste that in to the address bar).

Then, open the exe file corresponding to the program you want to change the icons for

Access

accicons.exe

Excel

xlicons.exe

Frontpage

fpicons.exe and misc.exe

Outlook

outicon.exe

Powerpoint

pptico.exe

Word

wordicons.exe

To replace the icons, in Resource Hacker, go to Action -> Replace Icon, choose which icon you want to replace from the right-hand side list and click 'Open file with new icon'. Navigate to and choose the icon you want to replace it with, click Replace. Save it and Bob's your uncle. No messy shortcuts or need to change file type icons manually.
