Hi,
When clicking 'Make' under the 'File' menu to compile my project as an executable, the file name always ends in ".exe" is there any way to have the name of the executable for example 'ABC' instead of what I am getting now 'ABC.exe' I know the file is an executable, but how come my actual file name always has '.exe' in it?
I am using VB6 Professional.

Hey, its really strange why would you want to call your program as "something.ABC" ???? That would mean you won't be able to run it...
There are programs out there that can actually change icons of .exe files and hide the extensions but hey that's hacker's stuff ...
