A Christian finds satisfaction in every circumstance by get­ting strength from another, by going out of himself to Jesus Christ, by his faith acting upon Christ and bringing the strength of Jesus Christ into his own soul, he is thereby enabled to bear whatever God lays on him, by the strength that he finds from Jesus Christ. Of His fullness do we receive grace for grace; there is strength in Christ not only to sanctify and save us, but strength to support us under our burdens and afflictions, and Christ expects that when we are under any burden, we should act our faith upon Him to draw virtue and strength from Him.

Installer avoidance

My finished application consists of one application file and one help
file. These both easily fit on a floppy disk.

The user can easily copy the application to their hard drive, but how can
I get the help file into the user's preferences folder?

I realize that there are several commercial installers to do just this,
but it seems like such over-kill for just two files.

Is there an easy way to create an application that will copy these two
files to their ultimate destinations- i.e. an installer, but a simplified
one that can be written in FB?

Otherwise it seems I have to buy the Smaller Installer and Compact Pro
for a total of about $200.00 to do the job.

What say ye, list members?

TIA,
