My TFS server changed names and now the spreadsheet can't pull the information because the server no long exists. The query on the new server is the same, I just need to fi...

How can you change the icon that represents a work item type in TFS Web Access? For instance, a bug appears as a page with a red squiggly line, while a task is a page with a red check mark.
