Issue with Setup project for Windows Application

Hi,

I have a file, placed at application startup path, which gets open with a menu click. It is working from code. But when I am cuttin EXE with the setup project application, it is not working with menu click.

I have placed the file on the "Application folder" of setup project it self.

Any suggestions on this please.

I can't understand your question. Add your application in startup folder instead of application folder.

Hi,

I am talking about the file (like .pdf,.txt files) which I have placed in Setup project. After installation this file got copied to the correct location required but it is not getting opened from the application.

Hope this will clear.

Keep all these files & your application in same directory. By this your application can access these files just by their names. Full path is not required.
For example,
file.open("abc.pdf")

Ok..Then when I have used full path in the application is working for other files. But this is happening with only one file.

Any suggestion on this please.
