stand-alone application using version 7.0.

[NMAYO]

I am trying to setup a stand-alone application using version 7.0.  When I load it on the machine I intend to use it on it asks what program I want to view it with and does not run the file. Am I missing some program or files?  I verified that run-time engine is loaded on the machine.  Can anyone suggest a solution?  Thank You.

Did you actually create an exe file with the application builder or are you trying to run a VI?

This is my first try at making a stand alone, so perhaps not.  How would I know whether or not I have configured it correctly?

I'm sorry I did use application builder to setup the installer.  I have loaded it onto the destination computer using the installer and this is where I cannot get the program to execute correctly.

Well, what steps did you follow? The first thing is to select from the Tools menu, Build Application or Shared Library. After you select a target name and destination, you go to the Source Files tab and select the top level VI you want to make into an exe. For a simple VI without any external files or dynamic VIs, you can then just click the Build button.
