When you right-click on the EXE file created after publishing, can I, and how can I change some of the "program information" details (from the summary tab on the file's properties)? Are there any legal requirements?

Let's say you want to change program information in Summary tab for wmplayer.exe:
C:\Program Files\Windows Media Player\
Right-click wmplayer.exe, choose Properties, and click the Summary tab.
There, you can enter:
Title Subject Aurhor Category Keywords Comments
Plus there's an advanced button and it also shows source and revision number.

But it would be a nice addition to have a panel in the publish function, which let you fill in these fields with custom information for the final exe.

Its more the Version tab (like WED or the wwmp2bmp.exe has) which is interesting in my opinion, and this tab can't be manualy edited at all, but as the exe is just a copy of the local acknex.exe i think this feature would be hard to implement, but would be still nice. old_bill

It would be nicer if Windows XP made it easier for you to edit things like that. But only if you yourself made it obviously, otherwise you would have any amount of randoms changing the information to suit their own needs. I don't know exactly how microsoft coulds implement such a thing into thier OS but I'm sure they'll find a way

Normally these information is added during the compiling of the original exe. But as we have the case here, that the Acknex.exe gets just copied, this is hard to implement in my point of view.
