Thanks for answering Hilmar. My scx is included in the project and then compiled, I was talking about the distribution directory, would I have to copy scx files there before I start using wizard setup? I'm probably going about this all wrong, but my intent is to protect the source code, before giving my program to another department. The step that I understand is that I have a directory lets say employees. In the employees directory I have my project with forms, tables reports etc. I compile the project in employee directory and then create another directory call distribution. In the distribution directory I copy all the files from employee directory, but NOT the scx files. Next I run the setup wizard and have it look at the distribution directory and create a setup directory with setup files. I delete the distribution directory and give the setup directory to other departments for installation. I am on the right track with this? Is this the way I can protect to source code?


Thanks
