Creating Virtual Software Packages
Include Wildcards, Exclude Wildcards
To include or exclude files based on specific criteria, enter a semicolon-delimited
list of wildcards. (Example: Enter *.EXE for all EXE files. A ? represents any one
character.) If you leave the wildcard fields blank, all files in the directory are
added.
Include Subdirectories
Mark this to add all the subdirectories within the directory you’re adding. The
wildcard settings apply to the subdirectories also.

The contents of the directory in the upper-left list box are added to the directory you
selected in the lower-left list box or to the directory you specified in the
Destination Directory field.

Editing File Details
When you add a file to a Virtual Software Package (VSP), it inherits the attributes of the
original file. If you edit the attributes of a file in a package, the file reflects your edits
when it is installed on the destination computer.
To edit attributes for a single file
1. On the Files page, double-click a file in the lower-right list box.
The File Details dialog box appears.
2. Complete the dialog box:
Long Filename
The name of the file as displayed on computers running Windows 95 and later.
Short Filename
The 8.3 file name as displayed in DOS or under older versions of Windows.
Specify the short name your application will look for if it is installed on a shared
network directory that doesn’t support long file names.
Source Pathname
The full path of the file on your computer. If you opened a virtual software layer,
this field contains SVS variables.
See
SVS Variables
on page 285.
Read Only
Make the file read-only on the destination computer.
Hidden
Make the file hidden on the destination computer.
System
Designate this file as a system file on the destination computer.
3. Click OK.
