>The .APP doesn't function by itself. It only works with the main .EXE file. So I wouldn't want someone to run it from the Windows Explorer or something like that. They way the application works is there is a main .EXE and the their are 3 additional modules which are all .APP files. Some user have one module, some have two, and some have all 3. By putting all the forms for the modules in a .APP, it makes it really easy to distribute the compiled version of the our product. Or at least it used to be easy... :)

>>just out of curiousity, why would you distribute the App as App file as opposed to exe?


Create a piece of code that has your forms in it like this:

* dummy.prg
*
*
DO FORM form1
DO FORM form2
DO FORM form3

for as many as you need.

Just be sure to manually include this file (dummy.prg) in your main code in some way that it will never execute:

IF .F.
  DO dummy
ENDIF

Or for that manner, you can add at the end of your main .PRG a dummy procedure that never gets called:

*your main.prg
 your code here
*
PROCEDURE dummy
DO FORM form1
DO FORM form2
DO FORM form3

Any of the above methods will force the Project Manager to add your forms to the .APP when it's built.
