Delphi7 - save my project as .exe filetype

[Cosmin]

I've built a generator for some passwords stored in my pc . I want to save this project as .exe file ( file type ~ program ) . Attached a pic for more details .

ADDON : What is your recommandation ( software ) for Programming ( i hope latest versions or whatever .. ) ?

Appreciated replies , Cosmin :)

I use VB! it's easy and simple. It wouldnt be under the save as command it'd be under something like compile. In VB u just click File> Make .exe. Don't know how it'd be in delphi!

Edit: Correction - I use VB6 I havent used VB.net yet

[Mave]

you mean you want to create an exe? if so then just go to project->Build or Make Project1.exe

[Sparkler]

yes just press the 'play button' to compile and run ur program or press 'build>compile project' or 'build > build project'. if ur wondering the difference 'build' is just a slower version of compile... you'll only need it when ur more advanced :)

oh and as regards what i recommend... Delphi. it rules :D

What is your recommandation ( software ) for Programming ( i hope latest versions or whatever .. ) ?

>>What is your recommandation ( software ) for Programming

That all depends on what type of applications/development work you want to do. (For the record i've been a client/server dev for the past 15 years and currently use VB6/VB.NET)

VB has it's abilities, and it's restrictions. As does Java, C, Delphi or any other dev tool.

Delphi is a good piece of work. I played with it in it's first few iterations but didn't really pick it up because I was concerned the Borland was going under.

There is no SINGLE right answer (sorry) Ask yourself the following; what type of apps, what companies do I want to work for, is the dev-tool / Company going to be available in 5 years, how many other people use this tool, and (of course) do I feel comfortable with this language.

Good luck.

i would recommend VC++ with MFC as C++ is still top programming language

and something jameswjrose might not have mentioned it which is Jobs, look at PSC jobs for programming languages and u will find that delphi has the least job oppertunities VB has most but ....
