>I have an application which I now wish to create distribution disks for. I run the wizard having first created a disk set directory and placed the data and .exe in the appropriate places. Everything executes fine. I then perform an installation, but the data source used by the application remains the original one. That is, instead of looking to the installation directory data source, \myprogram\data, the application is using the original development data directory!

Hi Ian,
In addition to what others have said, you will find that the full path to the data in any Form.DataEnvironment during development is used in your distributable. I have modified my base form class to reset all data paths in the DE. (I use the ForcePath() function in Foxtools during this process)
