sorry, meant to say it's a .cab file, not a .zip file, but your
decompression utility should handle it just the same.

Subject: RE: How Can I tell if the vbs is associated with the we file after
PackageManager create?

Hi Rick,
 
congrats on getting this all figured out in one day!
 
I just got home and read my email (can't read the GW lists from my work
email, they don't agree with one another on email formats), so I'm just
learning of your trials.
 
here's an interesting tidbit: a .wepm file is actually a zip file.  if you
want to verify things, just change it's extension to be .zip, and then have
a look at it's contents.  

in addition to your files there will be two extra files, both of which have
no extension, but which are text files.
 
the one named wepackinglist will give you info about your package;
including, if it's associated with something, some lines like the below
(borrowed from procedure finder):
 
[ProcFind.vbs]
assoc0=notepad.we

 
this is a nice way to reassure yourself you did everything right, and got
all your files in, and so on.
 
hth,
 
Chip

Hi Jeff: OK, that appears to be the case when I open PackageManager, type in
the name and select the vbs file in the list of files to include. The
Associate box, if I open it, has the NotePad.we file in the box. I guess I
will try and upload the wepm file to app central, unload the app in my app
manager, remove it from the Default folder and try downloading it again to
see if it installs completely.

        Thanks Jeff:
        Rick

        When you open package manager and choose to modify your existing
package, then open 
        Notepad2011.wepm, you can see your association.
        In order to see your association, you need to select the
Notepad2011.vbs file from the file list in the package manager.
        This is the file that is associated, and the buttons showing the
association only work when the .vbs file is selected.
        Hope this helps,
        Jeff Weiss

                Hi: I have associated the vbs to the we many times and
clicked the create file yet the next time I bring up the Package Manager the
association buttons are disabled until I select the vbs file and then they
are enabled and the NotePad.we file is in the associate file.
                I opened the Notepad.we file in text mode and script1 is set
to NotePad2011.vbs so the we file thinks it is associated. Is there some way
I can confirm the association is valid before I start trying to upload
things to app central again?
                By the way, I am not suppose to include the Notepad.we file
in the list of files to include in the package itself along with the
NotePad2011.vbs and NotePad2011.xml files am I?
                If I can confirm the association is valid and  in place i
will upload and rename my local vbs and xml files and try another download /
install from app central to see if it is automatically loaded and started in
AppManager.
                Thanks:
                Rick USA
