Zedna Posted April 14, 2007 Share Posted April 14, 2007 When you want to add something to EXE at compilation time there is no problem: look at FileInstall or search for resourcesBut when you want to add something to EXE at runing time this is BIG problem.This was discused on the forum already but no simple/clear solution.

If it comes to portability, then both ini file or database do fine without a care of the state of the original executable. So long as they remain together.Aceguy, all you can do is make it because the prospect is proven by others in doing this...Edit:Confirming that they are separate files !

I read through a antivirus doc that states how the heurogl..... works and looks for executables that change their hmm, structure how antivirus picks on executables of unknown in the definitions so, yes, use an external file is safe and best.

If a change does happen then it will be recognized and warned of to the user. The executable will be rendered useless whether the user likes it or not.
