EXE name different from project name?

I have a VB.NET project in which I want the EXE name to be different from
the VB Project (assembly) name. But I don't see where in the project
properties one can specify the target output name. What am I missing?

BTW, this is a simple, single form alert utility.

Thanks ...

I am really new to vb...but i beleive what you are looking for is:

Just underneith your solution in the Solutions Explorer is your Application
( its in black bold )
Go to property's of that and change the "Assembly Name"

You should notice the Output name on the bottom of the screen change as
well.

Please let me know if Im right. - We can teach eachother ;)

Thanks Miro,

But I don't see that in the solution explorer. But I changed the Name of the
assembly on the project property page, and that did the trick (changed the
output EXE name)

I am using VB.NET 2005

Cheers!
