if my memory serves me well, you also have to change a FNDR resource
in the file to tell the finder what the app/docs icons are. After that, a 
desktop
cleanup maybe necessary (Control-Option-? at startup...)

Also try a norton utilities or a disk first aid repair just in case your 
drive info
is incoherent... 

I hope I didn't repeat someone elses answers but I remember running into
those problems before and they made thngs work fine.

Last try: copy your app to a diskette. And insert it into another mac to 
see
what happens... It's possible that the Rev ICON ID intereferes 
somewhere...

You did change the file creator info didn't you? ;)

hope it helps...
