I am fairly new to OS X so please be gentle.
I have an excel spreadsheet icon on my desktop, which occasionally needs updating with new information. Rather than have the standard excel icon I have downloaded a .png graphic and used that to change the appearance of the icon - it is actually a padlock now.
Everything works fine until I update the information in that spreadsheet and save it. The icon then reverts to the standard excel icon.
I have gone into ...Get Info and tried locking it but it doesn't make any difference.
Any ideas on how to make the icon stay the same?
