It's time to publish your application. Click on the "Publish Project" toolbar icon on the project's painter bar. In the output frame, note the "Publish version" value. An instance of the browser opens to the default publish.htm page unless you specified a non-default value. The version value displayed on the page matched what was displayed in the output frame.

Now put on your user hat. You'll use this publish page as if you are the user of the application. Hover the mouse cursor over the word "Install" in the HTML button. The value displayed in the status bar is the URL you'd disseminate to your users.

Click on the "Install" button. The application will automatically download, install, and run. Click in "Install" on the Security Warning page if you've entered no value for the certificate.

Open the Windows Start menu and, if you've left these values as the default, you should see a program group of Sybase, Inc. with a cascading menu item/shortcut of "mss." Open the Help>About... window of your application and note the static text control's background color of red (if you've chosen the ongoing modification recommended for this tutorial). Close the application. If you haven't already done so, close the browser instance displaying publish.htm. Return to the Window Painter and then change the static text control's background color to the green in our RGB modification sequence. Save and close the window class. If you wish, change the company name and the product name values on the General tabpage of p_mss_winform. On the Publish tabpage, uncheck the "Generate publish page" checkbox. From this point on, our "virtual" user for this demonstration will access published updates to the application through means other than the URL that's provided in the prototypical "publish page."
