rev standalone for Windows

Thanks Frank.

What concerns me is IF the hierarchy presented by the standalone 
builder is significant. After the build I get

[Top Folder]
   sql-based-app.exe
   libmySQL.dll
     [externals folder]
        revdb.dll
        [database drivers folder]
          dbmysql.dll

So these three externals were placed in this order for some reason, 
right? you can see that one (libmySQL.dll) is NOT in the externals 
folder. You are saying that I should set the external property of the 
stack as "/externals/" and throwing all dlls in that folder, rather 
than any order left by the builder?

I'm firing up my windows machine up now...(it's been a long while, I 
hope it works..) and I'll move some stuff around. But any guidance 
here would be a time saver...

thanks again
