Stephen--

Choose Make from the File menu!<g> Save the file as a .exe, then save the application (or a shortcut to it) in the Scripts folder. It will appear in the Scripts palette in InDesign. Double-click the application's name in the Scripts palette to run it. That's all there is to it.

One note--we've (relatively recently) found that the Activate event does not work from .exe files run from the Scripts palette. If you're using one of the examples that includes Activate, you might want to comment out that line.

Thanks,

Ole
