Thank you for your reply to my problem. I think that I am getting closer but still have questions.
I installed the OS X Dev Tools and am making some headway. Mark, your video was very helpful. Please excuse my ignorance in this matter.

Can you point me to a .app file and where do I enter "Show package contents".

They are really folders and you can open them with "Show package contents". This may give you some clues.
You probably have many apps on your computer now that work this way as well. Try Internet Explorer. Just right click or control click on that program. A contextual menu will show with show the option to "show package contents". From there you will be able to take a peak inside.
I am currently using MC and do not have access to Rev 2.0 to answer this question. Sry.Will I still be faced with this problem or will 2.0 provide steps in the bldr to solve my current problem?When 2.0 comes, the standalones it creates will look familiar.
In MC, when you create your standalone, a .plist file is created for you. You then go into the package and edit that file. You can simply double-click on the file and it will open up the property list editor program for you. From there just do what the video showed you. Creating the icon files is a bit more work that my video does not show. In short, I use Graphic Converter to make those files. They are .tiff images that you then put into one of the icon editors that came with the X dev tools. It saves the icons out as .icns files.Thanks Mark. Still digesting the info. Can you clue me in how to create Pkg info and info.plistDar Scott
I made a QT video that shows the editing of the packages. While it
does not have any audio, it will give you an idea of how it works. You
can view it at:

I down loaded Math generator and thought that I would get more info thru ResEdit but discovered that there are no resource forks.
Hope this helps get you started.
