Screen Saver szAppName
Author
I''ve created a screensaver using the scrnsave library, but am running into problems when trying to define the application name. If I''ve read correctly, the szAppName is what will be displayed in the list of screensavers in the display properties. However, the name of my screensaver keeps defaulting to its filename -extension. Anyone know what I may be doing wrong?
I have a stringtable resource szAppName whose ID matches that of szAppName in "scrnsave.h".
the entension of your screensaver executable file must be ".scr"...
regardless of what you compile it to, or whatever, if you change the ".exe" to ".scr" and put it in the windows directory it will pop up on the list.

Oh, it''s showing up on the list of screensavers just fine... but it''s showing up as it''s actual filename instead of the szAppName. Which although not a big deal, I''d really like to figure out so I can do this stuff the RIGHT way.
