I have an app that keeps several data files. Is there a way for me to bundle these so they appear as one file to the user? Then if I can do this, how do I then access the files through RB?

The app I wrote keeps the data files in the same folder as itself, but it's getting quite cluttered and unsightly.

On Mac OS X, if you make a new folder named with the extension ".bundle", it appear as a... well, bundle. Then, from RB, you use the file as a folder, e.g: f=GetFolderItem ("").child("Data.bundle").child("MyFile").

However, if you want to make it crossplatform, you may take a look at the VirtualVolume class (in the RB online help, for example). You make a virtualVolume (since it is a specific-RB component, you create it once using your own application, you store your files in this VirtualVolume (you may also add methods to remove, add and modify them, as a debug-only feature))._______________________________________________
