How do I create a single file installer for LV 6.1 App Builder Output?

I have created an application using the 6.1 App builder and it installs fine. To be able to send this app to others, I would really like to put it in something like a self extracting executable file. How can I do this with app builder or can you suggest another software to buy that will let me create this.
Thanks for any help that you can provide

You raise a number of important points. I'll answer to the best of my knowledge.
1. Usually true. Win98/2K/XP have the Windows Installer Service built in, but 95/98/ME require InstMsiA.exe, and WinNT4 requires InstMsiW.exe. The difference is in the character set (ASCII vs. Unicode), and I don't know how that difference applies to the non-Roman alphabet installations. It's safest to include both if you're going to include one.
On the same subject, I noticed that the first thing the LV7 evaluation installer does on a Win2K box (and therefore probably on a Win98 box as well) is update the Windows Installer service, so LV7-built executables may very well require InstMsiA.exe/InstMsiW.exe on Win98/2K.
2. I think so. I usually don't distribu
te LabVIEW EXEs as self-extracting installers, but it probably is safest to wait until the setup is complete before returning control to the self-extractor software.
3. True. (And note that one of the circumstances under which you might repair/update msiexec is with LV7 on Win98/2K).
4. True. Setup.exe appears to install/update msiexec if needed and then launch the MSI file.

How can I create a single background image for a BorderLayout?

I can create a background with an image file for the individual panel (North, West, Center, East and South) in a BorderLayout, but I've been spinning my wheel for a long while now trying to figure out how to create just one background with a single image file for all of these panels?
In my application, a panel may contain various buttons, a listbox, a group of checkboxes, a combo box, or a canvas. Even if I used the same image file, when the panels are finally put together, one can clearly see that the end product is the result of a lot of patch works.
Hope someone has an answer for this. BTW, I'm using AWT because it works with existing browsers without the need for a separate Java plug-in.

Problems adding reg subkey in Single File Installer script

Hello,
I am having some problems with a script in my Single File Installer package im creating with the Installation Server Admin
Background:
I want to eliminate the users from having to pick the Kerberos token when we roll out SSO. To do this I need the following key in place for each user.
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\SAP\SecureLogin\TokenType = Kerberos
I already confirmed that I can get this key injected by the Windows system when a user (new user or existing user) on the machine by putting in the following keys under HKLM. This is really cool trick if you didn't know already, I have not seen it used here at SCN before, but I ot it from previous experience.
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Active Setup\Installed Components\slctoken\
String: Version"
Value: "1"
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Active Setup\Installed Components\slctoken
String: StubPath
Value: "reg add "HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\SAP\SecureLogin" /v "TokenType" /d "kerberos" /t REG_SZ /F"
Problem:
I can create registry values with this line I also use:
NwEngine.Shell.SetRegValue "HKLM\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Session Manager\Environment\SAPLOGON_INI_FILE", "REG_EXPAND_SZ", "%userprofile%\AppData\Roaming\SAP\Common\saplogon.ini"
But when I try to create new values in HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\SAP\SecureLogin it doesn't work. I think it is because the SecureLogin key does not yet exist. (this can be names anything, I made it up)
Question: (in short)
How can I make a registry subkey with a script inside the Single File Installer? I could also put a bat or vbs in the CustomerFiles folder and run it, but I don't know how.
My users have admin rights, and ultimately this will be pushed with LANDesk as System. So rights is not an issue.

Yea I confirmed NwEngine.SetRegValue is NOT writing the subkey, it just doesn't run if the subkey isn't in place. Windows command "reg add" will write the subkey for a value if its no there.
Also, im not writing to HKCU, im writing to a special place in HKLM. The key im writing will make the keys in HKCU during logon of the user. So I can run this as system, or local admin.
I allready have a LANDesk SAP installer, useing a VBScript that runs the sap installer, along with out OpenText installer
Here is my VB that is used with LANDesk or SCCM.
' Install SAP
Function Install_SAP()

How can I create an Excel file?

I need to create an excel file as it was made from within Excel.
Thank in advance,

When you are talking about subfiles, are you talking like Package contents of an application?
Terminal application in Applications -> Utilities can give a command line grasp of all your files using the du command.
Type
man du
when entering the terminal, followed by the enter key.
Note, by default the terminal opens at the Home folder. To navigate outside the Home folder enter "/Volumes/name of mounted drive/folder/subfolder" as your path. If there are spaces in the name, putting quotes around the whole path can help. If you end your du command with a > name.txt a text file with the name name.txt will be plugged into your Home directory. That you can open with Excel and parse by /es thus giving you everything in Excel.

How do i create one source file that feeds two users on the same pro book?

how do i create one source file/folder of photos that feeds two users on the same pro book?

Well you can do exactly the same with a folder of photos, just put in the Users/Shared folder.
Iphoto is a mite more complex than this. It's a database and so there's a bit more involved.
For iPhoto 09 (version 8.0.2) and later:
What you mean by 'share'.
If you want the other user to be able to see the pics, but not add to, change or alter your library, then enable Sharing in your iPhoto (Preferences -> Sharing), leave iPhoto running and use Fast User Switching to open the other account. In that account, enable 'Look For Shared Libraries'. Your Library will appear in the other source pane.
Any user can drag a pic from the Shared Library to their own in the iPhoto Window.
Remember iPhoto must be running in both accounts for this to work.
If you want the other user to have the same access to the library as you: to be able to add, edit, organise, keyword etc.
Quit iPhoto in both accounts. Move the Library to the Users / Shared Folder
(You can also use an external HD set to ignore permissions, a Disk Image or even partition your Hard Disk.)
In each account in turn: Double click on the Library to open it. (You may be asked to repair the Library Permissions.) From that point on, this will be the default library location. Both accounts will have full access to the library, in fact, both accounts will 'own' it.
However, there is a catch with this system and it is a significant one. iPhoto is not a multi-user app., it does not have the code to negotiate two users simultaneously writing to the database, and trying will cause db corruption. So only one user at a time, and back up, back up back up.

Make the tab control a control and not an indicator. If you want to write
to it you need to create a local variable.

Let us assume you have all the data from the jsp form in an java bean object..
Now you want a xml file. This can be acheived in 2 ways
1. Write it into a file using java.io classes. Say you have a class with name
write("<name>"+obj.getName+</name>);
bingo you have a flat file with the xml
2. Use data binding to do the trick
will recommend JiBx and Castor for the 2nd option

How do I create a pdf file that is 300 dpi in Adobe Acrobat XI?

PDF files do not have a "resolution" - they aren't images. The pages are a mix of vector art and text, and raster (pixel-based) graphics. The raster items on a page can (and often do) have different resolutions.
