I don't know how it is with Vista, but in XP you could just create your manifest as app.exe.manifest and keep it in the same directory as app.exe, and the OS would take it. Maybe the same works with Vista.

If have neither experience with manifests and XP. I will give your advice a try. Thanks! However, how can I embed the manifest within the executable?

It's been a while since I did that, but I think you linked it as a special resource, or something like that. I think DIG did that, but I'm not sure if it really worked.
