When the user runs this file, it extracts the contents to a temp directory and launches your application. When your application is exited, the temp directory and contents are deleted.<br> <br> To bundle your project into one executable file:</p> <ol> <li>Choose Project > Publish from the menu.<br> <br> </li> <li>Select single-file executable.<br> <br> </li> <li>Click Next.<br> <br> </li> <li>Enter the desired path and filename.<br> <br> </li> <li>Click Build.</li> </ol> <p>Please note that selecting the password protect option does not affect how the user runs your program. The password protect option generates a random password preventing the user from uncompressing the executable file and gaining access to your raw files.<br> </p> <h3>MORE INFORMATION</h3> <p>For more information please see the following topics in the AutoPlay Media Studio 5.0 help file:</p> <ul> <li><b>Program Reference | Projects | Publishing</b></li> </ul> <p>KEYWORDS: AutoPlay Media Studio 5.0, Project, Publish, Single File, Zip, Compress </p> <hr> <FONT SIZE=1> Last reviewed: October 3, 2003<br> Copyright © 2003 <A HREF="http://www.indigorose.com" target="blank">Indigo Rose Corporation</a>.
