About the Project Settings View
¾
WiseScript Editor only
The Project Settings view contains several pages that provide information that is
required by certain script actions. (Example: The Compiler Variable If action requires a
compiler variable to be defined on the Compiler Variables page.)
Project Settings is available only in WiseScript Editor.
To access Project Settings, click Project Settings at the lower left of the WiseScript Editor
main window.
The Project Settings view works just like Installation Expert.

Active Directory
¾
WiseScript Package Editor only
Use the Active Directory page to create a .ZAP file. You need a .ZAP file to distribute
.EXEs through Microsoft Active Directory. The .ZAP file is created in the same directory
as the installation .EXE. Microsoft Active Directory uses the information in the .ZAP file
to distribute the .EXE.
Before you complete the Active Directory page, complete the Product Details and Add/
Remove pages. Some of the fields on the Active Directory page obtain their values from
fields on those pages.
Select Installation Expert > Active Directory page and complete the page:
