Target (Setup Project Properties Dialog Box)

Use this dialog box to set the setup file name and the entry it will write to the Windows Start menu of the target computer.

Options

Application title

Provides a place to enter or edit the application title for the extracted application as you want it to appear in the Windows Add/Remove Programs dialog box. To reach this dialog box, click the Start menu, point to Settings, click Control Panel, and then double-click Add/Remove Programs.

Argument

Provides a place to enter or edit the argument for the command line program that you specified in the Command line program box. For example, this could be the specific HTML page you want to launch with Internet Explorer 4.0.

Command line program

Provides a place to enter or edit the command line information that runs the application when the shortcut name is used from the Windows Start menu. This information, if available, is filled in from the Launch (Project Properties) dialog box.

Create an entry in the Start menu

Specifies that the setup (.exe) distribution unit will place an entry for the application in the target computer's Start menu.

Insert Default

Inserts a variable representing a folder location on the target computer into either the Command Line or Argument text boxes (whichever box is selected). For example, if your setup installs the program "MyApp.exe," you might make the command line "<AppDir>\MyApp.exe".

You can choose from the following:

• <AppDir> – specifies the directory where you are installing the setup distribution unit.
  
  
• <IEDir> – specifies the installation folder for Internet Explorer 4.0.
  
  
• <SysDir> – specifies the Windows System folder.
  
  
• <WinDir> – specifies the Windows folder.

Installation folder

Provides a place to enter or edit the default location you want the application to install to on the target computer. (Your user can override this default value when they run the setup.)

Install under the "Program Files" folder

Specifies that the setup distribution unit will place the installation folder inside the Window Program Files folder. The development environment automatically seeks out the Program Files folder on the target computer, even in other written languages, and even if the Program Files folder is not in the default location.

Setup file name

Provides a place to enter or edit the name you want for the self-extracting setup (.exe) distribution unit.

Shortcut name

Provides a place to enter or edit the name of the application as you want it to appear in the Windows Start menu, under Programs.
