When I install an app that has been set up with the Application Wizard,
is there any way to direct where the app name and its icon will show up
in the Start|Programs list? I'd like to put an app _under_ {subordinate
to} an existing program in the listing, for example.

It's a real kludge, but you can edit the setup.lst file. At the end, there's a line: DefaultDir=$(ProgramFiles)\<yourapp> where the <yourapp> is the project name used by the setup wizard, I believe. Just change this to wherever you wanted the file put. The hassle is that you have to do this every time you rerun the wizard.... Helen | |||||

RE: -.1 - This works up to a point... it will indeed install the app down in the subdir specified in that line. But, sadly, the app's icon still shows up above the divider in the Programs list. Someone else probably had the key: use InstallShield. Thanks, Art | |||||
