Disappearing icons, how to fix?

I am using regular icons but am providing an icon path. If someone could explain to me how to have the icon be a native part of the exe or get IA to use the only icon I have in my directory, I would prefer to do that. I am only using one icon for my entire project. I read the link below...

...but was not sure I wanted to do this if I could somehow get the icon embedded into the exe. Thanks.

What was the solution?

I had not setup the default icon for the project. In the past I had always assigned an icon thru the VS Setup Project and had to give it a path as opposed to using the default icon. So when I started using InstallAware, I thought when I saw the path for an icon that is what I should use. Working backward from there, using the help and reading any icon related posts here. Anyway, its working great now.....Thanks.
