Custom Desktop Folders

[Ray]

Thanks Roger.  I can supply the .ico file I intend to use so the 
question isn't really how to /create /the .ico file from within 
Livecode, it's how to assign the .ico file to the folder so the folder 
displays it on the desktop.

I can do this /manually /on Windows.  Right-click, choose Properties, 
click the Custom tab and the click Choose File in the Folder Pictures 
section.  This is what I want to do from within Livecode.
