Nope.  You can have ANY icon displayed for ANY file.  For instance,
My resume is written in Windows Write.  I just create a Program Item
and specify REsume.wri as the file, and use write.exe as the icon file.
This is what Icons are for.  For DOS programs, the some holds true.  Just
change the icon in the File/Properties dialog.  If you wanna use an
icon from another program, just specify that program's .exe file in the
icon file name part.
