Create executable - always a console app

I'm running PureBasic 4.41 (MacOS X - x86) on Snowleopard (10.6.2). When I run my app from the IDE everythin is fine, but if I create an executable it's compiling a console app all time. Executable format in compiler options is set to MacOS - All CPU. What am I doing wrong?

Create Executable:
MyProgram.app

That's the problem. There is no *.app file created, just a MyProgram file, a console program!

I guess he means you should try to save it appending ".app" to the name specified.
A search in the forum gave this:

Thanks again for the help, Luis (and to think you don't even own a Mac!)
Don't feel bad, Ace, some of us have already made that mistake as the link shows. I feel that it is better to ask the question (or make a search), so that you can get on with your project, than to be stumped.
