External DLL used in executable gets removed from Installer after saving the Installer

I am building a runtime application which uses an external DLL.

 

When I build the executable it creates a subfolder called data in the same folder as the executable files, and it puts the DLL in the data subfolder.

 

Now when I create the installer for this application, and add the executable build to it in the Source Files -> Destination View, it also adds the data subfolder with it containing the DLL. However when I save it the installer by clicking OK, and then re-open it the DLL is no longer present in the data subfolder in Source Files -> Destination View. If I build the installer and use it, it does not contain the DLL and my application falls over.

 

Has anyone else had a similar problem or know what I may be doing wrong

Sorry I have just noticed that after clicking OK and re-opening the Setup properties the DLL is not removed but the data subfolder where it is located gets relocated in Source Files -> Destination View to one folder level up

 

Is this a bug Labivew Projects->Build Specifications->Installer???
