APPLICATION INFORMATION
The Application Information dialog collects information which InstallWizard uses internally. You must enter information or leave the default settings in the Application Name, Version, and
Company fields in order to comply with Windows 95 Setup Guidelines. If you erase any of these fields,
InstallWizard will not be able to make the automatic registry entries necessary to meet Windows 95 specifications, including the uninstallation entry.
This dialog contains five edit fields:
Application Name: Enter the full name of your application (80 characters max.). The default setting for this field will be the project name you entered in the New Project dialog box.
n Application Executable: Click the browse (...) push button next to this field to launch the Open dialog. From this dialog, locate and select your primary executable file. When you click the Open push button to accept your selection, the filename will be displayed in the grayed edit field, along with the
[Program Files]directory specifier.
Version: If you specify an executable file in the Application Executable field which contains a version resource,
InstallWizard will enter the version number in the Version field. Otherwise, the default setting for this field is 1.0. You can also enter or modify the version number of your application. You can format your version number however you like (the field will accept up to 40 characters).
Check that you have not left any of the following fields blank in the Application Information dialog: "Application Name," Version" and "Company." These three values are used as paths for the registry entries that
InstallWizard automatically makes for your setup. If one or more of these paths is missing, the registry entries required for your setup to have Windows 95 Uninstall capability cannot be made, and therefore your application's name will not appear in the Control Panel's Add/Remove Programs Properties
applet.
Company: Enter the name of your company (80 characters max.). The default setting for this field will be the company name you entered when you first installed
InstallWizard.
Note: If the entry in the Company field contains any illegal characters (such as '?'), your setup will fail when it tries to create this default destination directory.
Default Destination Directory: The default destination directory is the default location where your application will be installed on the target system if no directory is specified by the user. This default entry follows this format: <Program
Files>\Company Name\Project Name. For example, if you specify your application name to be "My Application" and your company to be "My Company", and your user's Program Files directory is located at "C:\Program Files", the default destination directory will be "C:\Program Files\My Company\My Application". However, you can modify this default entry created by
InstallWizard to have any destination directory created.
Language: Choose here the language that will be used
to create your setup.
