Sorry, but your question doesn't make a lot of sense.

Save what after what programming?

A screensaver is essentially no more than a compiled .exe renamed to a .SCR file and dropped into the Windows directory.

All you need to do is make sure your program does it's 'stuff' in a single Do..Loop and has a line which exits the program if the mouse is moved or a key is pressed.

You can of course make things more complicated by integrating your program more into Windows and include options - but that's another story...

I don't understand. My only solution is: Program first. Save .exe as a final draft last.

P.S.>>>>>Use better grammar when you ask, as well as use periods. Re-read and make sure it makes sense, and is answerable before you post. Thanks.
