Hi John.

This is probably a simple problem, but I am running out of time.
I made a simple prototype which is user interface only.
It works fine in my machine. If I transfer it to clients machine it will
Not run. Just starts and ends. In desperation I loaded the developer stuff
onto the clients computer. It builds ok but gives me the error
"Run session aborted; No launchable executable present to run."

I ran into a problem with a client that was similar. May not be the same problem, but could be. If you're emailing the app and it's compressed using a new version of Stuffit, older versions of Stuffit will botch the bundle when it is decompressed. The bundle appears fine (if it has a generic icon to begin with, as many quickly built tools do), but it will not run because the bundle contents/settings are screwed up. It will appear to launch and the icon may bounce in the dock once or twice, but it will shut down with no explanation at all. We solved our problem by making sure the client was using a new version of Stuffit Expander.

If you're gettting the "Run session aborted; No launchable executable present to run" error when building it on the second machine, this could just be a PB 2 beta bug that seems to be affecting some people. Are you building using PB 2 beta?
