    Project build problem - what am I doing wrong?

    I have a program that needs to access a prewritten external data file
    that is supplied with the program. I want to place this data file in
    Environment.Spe cialFolder.Loca lApplicationDat a\MyProgramFold er\

    In the program's setup project I've done: Add Special Folder | User's
    Application Data File, then within this created a folder called
    MyProgramFolder , then Add File and pointed to a copy of my external
    data file, which duly appears in the folder contents (EXCEPT that it
    has a wavy line underneath!)

    But unfortunately the resulting setup program does not install the
    external data file where it should - in fact as far as I can see it
    does not install it at all anywhere on the target PC.

    Cany anyone advise what I'm doing wrong please? The fact that the file
    entry has a wavy line underneath is presumably indicative of an error
    but what's the cause and how do I fix it?
