Hi Al, Thanks for the suggestion but it doesn't help. As demonstrated in the 'Hello World' example I gave, the first 'Co' name remains as it did in totally new versions of my app as reported earlier. The only time it changed is when I went from my app name to hello world but in no instance was the company name used as shown in the properties field. This morning I started from scratch by opening the ide as though I was using it for the first time, started a project, put a couple of things on a form, added a company name and started the installer. The company name it showed was 'helloworldco' from yesterday, no resemblance to today's project name nor the company name. It appears that it doesn't look at the 'company name' in the properties field. Hopefully others who read this thread will experiment on their own and verify what I am finding. If my procedure is wrong, I need to know.
