I right-clicked on the exe file and then chose Create Program Object >
Default. It asked where I wanted to put the file, and I just chose the
same folder the executable was already in. When I double clicked the new
program object, it says "Cannot start C:\DESKTOP\SEAMONKE\SEAMONKE.EXE"
and gives some reasons why that might be. At least now I have it try to
execute something, so that is a step forward! :-) Thanks!
