Testing the WebCD Viewer Image

WebCD Globe Testing the WebCD Viewer Image

Use the Test WebCD Image option from the File menu in the WebCD Packager to test a WebCD Viewer image you have built to your hard drive. This option is also available from an icon in the WebCD Packager Program Folder. The various ways of testing your WebCD Viewer image are covered below.

Using the Test WebCD Image option from the File menu

1 Build your WebCD Image, choosing Hard Disk as the destination. (See Building the WebCD Viewer Image for more information.)
2 Select Test WebCD Image from the File menu. The WebCD Viewer image is run just as your user would see it. The only difference is, for your convenience, the desktop icon is not created and the WebCD Viewer Program Folder is not created. (See Installing the WebCD Viewer for more information about what is installed on the user's desktop when they run the WebCD Viewer setup program.)

Using the Test WebCD Image icon in the WebCD Packager Program Folder

1 Build your WebCD Image, choosing Hard Disk as the destination. (See Building the WebCD Viewer Image for more information.)
2 With or without the WebCD Packager application running, double-click the Test WebCD Image icon in the WebCD Packager Program Folder.
3 Find the webcd.wvw file. It is located in the Program subfolder of your WebCD Image folder. The WebCD Image folder is the folder into which you built your WebCD Image (specified on the Build Wizard: Destination Dialog). Usually this location is
.á. á.\WebCD Packager\Projects\project-dir\Image\Program\
where project-dir is the directory containing your WebCD Packager project (usually the same as your project name).
The WebCD Viewer image is run just as your user would see it. The only difference is, for your convenience, the desktop icon is not created and the WebCD Viewer Program Folder is not created. (See Installing the WebCD Viewer for more information about what is installed on the userÆs desktop when they run the WebCD Viewer setup program.)

Testing the Image by Running Setup.exe

1 Build your WebCD Image, choosing Hard Disk as the destination. (See Building the WebCD Viewer Image for more information.)
2 Use Windows Explorer or the Run command from the Windows 95 Start menu to run the setup.exe located in the WebCD Image folder. The WebCD Image folder is the folder into which you built your WebCD Image (specified on the Build Wizard: Destination Dialog). Usually this location is
.á. á.\WebCD Packager\Projects\project-dir\Image\
where project-dir is the directory containing your WebCD Packager project (usually the same as your project name).
3 Running the WebCD Viewer image in this manner DOES create the desktop icon and the WebCD Viewer Program Folder. (See Installing the WebCD Viewer for more information about what is installed on the user's desktop when they run the WebCD Viewer setup program.)
