File location surprizes when building .exe

Hi,

 

I'm working on a project which I'm saving to my "D:\Documents and Settings\My Name\My Documents\Customer\Project" folder.  The project contains VIs located in "\Project" and a couple of DLLs located in a '\Project\api' subfolder.  When I build an installer using Application Builder which installs the project to "C:\Program Files\Project", the resulting .exe file that I launch looks for the DLLs in "D:\Documents and Settings\My Name\My Documents\Customer\Project\api" and prompts me to find the files.  I configured Application Builder to install the DLLs in "C:\Program Files\Project\lib" folder during installation of the project. 

 

I don't want the .exe to look for the DLLs in the "\Projects\api" folder.  I want the .exe to automatically find the DLLs in the "C:\Program Files\Project\lib" folder without asking me.  How can I do this? 

 

Is this an Application Builder problem or a LabVIEW problem?

 

Thanks.

I guess you forgot to include the DLLs in the EXE. Please post back if my assumption is wrong.
